‘Hats Off to Them’: Netizens Praise Salman Khan Family for Supporting Malaika Arora Despite Divorce – News18

Salman Khan and his family have garnered widespread appreciation on social media for their unwavering support toward Malaika Arora after the tragic death of her father, Anil Mehta. Despite Malaika’s divorce from Arbaaz Khan in 2017, the Khan family stood by her side during this difficult time, showcasing their close-knit bond.

Anil Mehta reportedly died by suicide, jumping from the balcony of his home in Bandra, Mumbai. The loss has devastated Malaika and her family, but the Khans, including Salman, Arbaaz, Sohail Khan, Salim Khan, Salma Khan, Helen, Arpita Khan Sharma, and Alvira Agnihotri, have been regular visitors to Malaika’s parents’ residence to offer their condolences and support.

Social media users have been flooding platforms with praise for the Khan family, acknowledging their loyalty and care despite Malaika’s separation from Arbaaz. “As they say, Salman may not show up for celebrations, but he’ll always be there in tough times,” one user remarked. Another echoed this sentiment, saying, “Even after Malaika’s split with Arbaaz, it’s heartwarming to see the entire family by her side.”

Many netizens have pointed out how Salman Khan, in particular, had no obligation to visit but did so out of genuine care for Malaika and her family. “Salman didn’t have to go, but he did. That speaks volumes about his character,” one fan wrote. Others added that the Khan family’s ability to rise above personal differences and support each other during times of sorrow is a testament to their integrity. “Hats off to Salman and his family for showing up when it matters most,” another comment read.

Malaika and Arbaaz, despite their divorce, have continued to co-parent their son, Arhaan, and are often seen together in public for family gatherings. However, it’s been rare to see Malaika with the rest of the Khan family until this recent tragic event.

On September 11, Malaika released a heartfelt statement, requesting privacy as her family mourns the loss. She expressed gratitude for the outpouring of support from friends and well-wishers during this trying time.
