Meanwhile, Malaika recently shared an advice to married women or women who areplanning to get married. Speaking to Curly Tales, Malaika Arora said, "Independent rakho baba. Jo tera hai voh tera hai, jo mera hai voh mera hai (what's yours is mine). I mean, when you get married or you're with someone, you try to infuse... you know, try to fuse a situation where you want to make everything one. But I feel it's very important to have your own identity."

She added, "It's good that you're doing things together but that doesn't mean you kind of give up your entire identity and take on someone else's. As it is you're taking on somebody else's last name, right? So I think the least you can do is hang on to your own bank account."
