Malaika Arora, known for featuring in popular hit songs like Chaiyya Chaiyya and Munni Badnaam Hui, has recently shared her disappointment in facing criticism throughout her career. She stated that people troll her for her fashion sense, career choices and everything she does. The diva also claimed that she is now immune to it and will react to trolls when she feels the need to address it. 

During a conversation with Hindustan Times, Malaika said “Everybody works very hard and puts in loads of efforts to make their brand, and nobody is looking for a short cut. But, if you see my entire trajectory, I’ve made a career out of being criticised and trolled for my choices, for the person that I am, what I wear, for everything. So, it has been a part of my entire career, and hence, I’m very immune to it.”

“I will engage with them (trolls) the day I feel that it needs to be addressed and if I feel somebody is going after someone close to me or my near ones or dear ones, my loved ones. Then of course it requires me to stand up and say something, otherwise, I won’t waste my time, energy, my breath and my sanity. I don’t think it’s worth it. I’ve got other things to do and worry about. I don’t need to justify anything to anyone whether it’s my personal or professional life; I don’t owe anybody an explanation,” says the actor, urging people to not mistake her silence for being complacent. “I maintain a certain level of silence because I choose to be like that. I don’t like and want that extra noise. That’s how I keep my sanctity intact, and I’m happy like that,” she added.

Malaika was one of the judges in the popular show India's Got Talent in the 4th to 8th Season. She also judged MTV Supermodel of the Year in 2019.
