Arbaaz Khan Opens Up About Son Arhaan's Reaction During His Separation With Malaika Arora!

Arbaaz Khan and Malaika Arora were considered one of the hottest couples of BTown. The duo looked perfect in every picture that they posed and every time they just appeared together. However, not all was well and in 2017, after 9 years of marriage, the two decided to part ways. It were rumoured that the rift between the two had come up way back. But the two have not stopped being friends and can still be seen together at times, like during son Arhaan's 17th birthday.

So was their child Arhaan all okay during their separation? How did they break this news to him? Well, Arbaaz answered all these questions himself. Talking to Pinkvilla, the actor revealed that Arhaan coped up with their separation really well. He said that Arhaan, who was just a 12 year old back then, sensed the situation. He also feels that we often underestimate the intelligence of a child. He said, 

“My boy was almost 12 at that time, he had a fair understanding. He was aware of what was happening. There wasn’t much to explain to him.”

He further said that he willfully gave Arhaan's custody to Malaika since he realised that a child of his age needed to be close to his mother. Talking about it, he said, “I am there for him. She has the custody of my child and didn’t want to even fight for custody because I felt when the child is younger, he needs his mother. Now he is 17, he will soon to be 18, he will make up his mind where he wants to be… he is a lovely boy.”

Arbaaz Khan is currently dating Giorgia Andriani while Malaika is with Arjun Kapoor. Arhaan seems to be bonding well with both.
