Social media exploded as the viral video circulated, with fans reacting to Arjun’s confirmation that his relationship with Malaika Arora has indeed come to an end. The timing was particularly interesting, as Arjun’s Instagram activity around Malaika’s birthday raised more eyebrows. While he used to shower her with love and sweet posts on her special day, this year he went cryptic, sharing the iconic line from The Lion King: “Never forget who you are – The Lion King.” A hint of self-reflection? Maybe, but fans couldn’t help reading between the lines, wondering if Arjun was channeling his inner Simba or perhaps sending a message about his newfound single status.
