In a move that has sent ripples across Bollywood and social media, Malaika Arora, the celebrated actress and fitness icon, took to Instagram today, June 26, 2025, to share a warm birthday wish for her ex-boyfriend, actor Arjun Kapoor, who turns 40. This public gesture comes months after their much-discussed separation in late 2024, confirming that despite parting ways, a bond of cordiality and respect endures.

A Sweet, Unseen Boomerang Captures Attention

Malaika shared an adorable, candid boomerang video on her Instagram stories, featuring Arjun Kapoor in a relaxed and cheerful mood. Dressed in a white shirt and black pants, the Singham Again actor can be seen enjoying himself in the clip. Alongside the short video, Malaika simply penned, "Happy Birthday, Arjun."

This seemingly simple post has garnered significant attention from fans and the media alike. Their breakup, which was subtly confirmed by Arjun Kapoor during Singham Again promotions in October 2024 (where he stated, "Nahi nahi abhi single hun, relax karo"), had left many wondering about the nature of their post-split relationship. Malaika, for her part, had largely maintained privacy regarding the separation, stating she prefers not to discuss her personal life publicly.

A History of Public Affection and Amicable Split

Malaika Arora and Arjun Kapoor had been in a relationship for nearly six years, often making headlines with their public appearances and social media affection. They made their relationship Instagram-official on Arjun's birthday in June 2019, sharing loved-up photos that quickly went viral. Their relationship, despite a significant age gap, was a subject of constant media fascination.

While the exact reasons for their split in 2024 remain private, sources close to the couple indicated that they had "run their course" but maintained a dignified and respectful separation. Even after the breakup, reports hinted at an amicable equation, with Arjun reportedly offering support to Malaika during a difficult personal time in 2024. Furthermore, subtle social media interactions, such as Arjun liking Malaika's posts, had occasionally sparked speculation among fans about their continued rapport.

Beyond the Breakup: A Nod to Lasting Friendship?

Malaika's birthday post today is the clearest indication yet of the amicable terms she shares with Arjun. It suggests that despite the end of their romantic relationship, a foundation of friendship and mutual well-wishes remains. In an industry often marked by acrimonious splits, their mature approach to a public breakup has been notable.

As Arjun Kapoor celebrates his 40th birthday, he has been receiving a flurry of wishes from friends and industry colleagues, including Kareena Kapoor Khan and Karan Johar. However, it is Malaika's thoughtful and public gesture that has truly captured the internet's imagination, underscoring that some bonds, even after a breakup, transcend the conventional definitions of relationships.
