EXCLUSIVE: Malaika Arora unites with ex-husband Arbaaz Khan, to produce Dabangg 3 with him
Malaika Arora will produce with Arbaaz Khan again for Dabangg 3!
Malaika Arora and Arbaaz Khan give us ex-couple goals and how to maintain a cordial front, despite a divorce. While both have moved on with their lives (Arbaaz is said to be dating Romanian beauty Alexandra Camelia), both Arbaaz and Malaika have been seen at family occasions together. Now we have heard that Malaika will remain co-producer of Dabangg 3.
Says a source, “While Malaika and Arbaaz may have split up personally, on the professional front, the status quo has remained the same. Dabangg and Dabangg 2 had Malaika as a co-producer and now that Arbaaz will be going on floors with Dabanng 3, Malaika will again co-produce it, along with Arbaaz. Their divorce won’t affect her co-producer status. It was an amicable one which came through in May this year. Interestingly, Arbaaz will remain on board as the only producer as he won’t direct Dabangg 3 this time. Salman stated recently they will shortlist a good director as Arbaaz’s replacement soon.”
Though divorced, Malaika and Arbaaz have remained on cordial terms post that. The source adds, “Both are close are often seen at family get-togethers and celebrations, including Christmas and birthdays and are great parents to their 13-year-old son Arhaan. They celebrated his birthday together this year. As Arbaaz is very close to Malaika’s parents, Joyce and Anil Arora, so is Malaika to his sister Arpita and the family. She went for Arpita’s son’s first birthday to Maldives earlier this year. And last week Arbaaz was seen enjoying a quiet lunch with her family, including Malaika’s sister Amrita Ladak and her husband Shakeel. So Malaika being a part of the Khan family and co-producing Dabangg 3 is just a natural extension of everything. She had danced to the item songs Pandeyji Seeti in Dabangg 2 and Munni Badnaam Hui in Dabangg and may even do one more in Dabangg 3.”
