A moving video that shows Joyce Polycarp, Malaika's mother, getting ready to attend Anil Mehta's last rituals, has surfaced online.

Malaika posted a letter on Instagram stating that the family is still in shock and asking for privacy during these trying times.

Model Malaika Arora's stepfather, Anil Mehta, 62, passed away from various injuries, according to the post-mortem report.

Things can only become evident after the police investigation is completed, and the post-mortem is currently underway. Malaika reportedly hurried to her mother's Bandra home as soon as this happened when she was in Pune.

Malaika Arora and Amrita Arora’s father Anil Mehta has died by suicide. The actress has now shared an emotional post, asking for media to respect their privacy.

Malaika’s ex-husband Arbaaz Khan rushed to the actress’s residence to offer condolences to the family.

When talking about characters, we always tend to remember the actor from the name of that movie, character and the scenes of the character, even though we don’t remember much about the movie itself.

While many would recoil from the term "sex symbol," Malaika has endured it throughout the years. She even proudly owns it. She readily expressed her support of this moniker when asked about it, viewing it as a complement rather than a derogatory stereotype.
