Actress and reality show judge Malaika Arora has made a name for herself in the Hindi entertainment industry for her bold fashion statements. One of the most talked-about celebrities online, she often makes the headlines when netizens call her out for her life choices. She has been living her life unabashedly ever since she divorced her ex-husband Arbaaz Khan after 19 years of marriage. During a recent interview, she recalled an incident where people assumed she was receiving fat alimony from him when she was spotted wearing expensive clothes.

In an interview with Pinkvilla, she explained how netizens assumed she received ‘fat alimony’ from her husband after their split as she was spotted wearing an expensive outfit during an event. Talking about the ridiculous article, she expressed how it left her aghast and it made her understand that no matter what someone does in their life, it will not make a difference. Quoted by the Free Press Journal, she shared, “Somebody decided to carry a ridiculous article about something that I was wearing as to how expensive it is, and they said, ‘Clearly she can afford it because she got a fat alimony’ and I was aghast. Whatever you have done in life, at whatever level, it makes no difference.” ALSO READ: Malaika Arora Parties With Son Arhaan Khan And Orry In Dubai; Shares Glimpses From Their Fun-Filled Night- Check It Out!
