Malaika Arora, a Bollywood star, recently appeared on her son Arhaan Khan’s popular podcast Dumb Biryani. While at it, she was spotted asking her 22-year-old son “his body count,” which refers to the number of women he has slept with so far.
During her guest appearance on the show, Malaika and Arhaan played a game in which they asked each other difficult questions, and if they couldn’t answer, they had to drink a shot of ‘mirchi ka salan’ or bite off a green chilli.
During that section, Malaika confronted her son about his sexual partners, and he did not speak. “What is your body count?” she brazenly asked Arhaan, and thereafter worried if she even knew the meaning of the term.
“Give me an honest answer… Just bloody give me an answer… I need a number,” Malaika added. However, a visibly speechless Arhaan chose to not answer the question and instead, gulped down a ‘mirchi ka salan’ shot.
During the same part, Arhaan was seen asking Malaika about her wedding preparations. “I want an exact date, a venue, a destination, and to whom,” he said, and as the actress chose to ignore the query and eat a green chilli, she stated that she was having the best life.
Malaika also stated on the show that Arhaan was not a “planned child”. “It’s just happened. I never imagined that at my age, I would have you. “It just happened,” she explained.
Malaika was married to Salman Khan’s brother, actor-filmmaker Arbaaz Khan, for over 19 years till the couple split in 2016. In 2017, they divorced. Arhaan was born to the couple in 2002.
While Arbaaz remarried Shura Khan in December 2023, Malaika has been dating actor Arjun Kapoor for around four years. However, the couple has yet to divulge their marital intentions to the public.
