About Malika's father
Malaika once revealed she was only 11 when her parents were separated. She said, I had a wonderful childhood, but it wasn't easy. In fact, in retrospect, the word I would use to describe it is tumultuous. But tough times teach you important lessons too."
Anil Arora was known to be a private individual, staying largely out of the limelight. Malika's father was a Punjabi Hindu from the Indian border town of Fazilka who worked in the Indian Merchant Navy, while her mother, Joyce Polycarp, is a Malayali Christian.
