‘Age is just a number’ somehow does not apply when it comes to women in general. It is a very rare case when a woman is applauded and appreciated for breaking stereotypes at an age that is beyond 29 and if you are a public figure, consider yourself a walking taboo. One such celebrity is Malaika Arora who is age shamed on so many levels. Malaika Arora has never abided by the so-called rules, she got married early, embarrassed motherhood while having a career and then went through a divorce to finally giving her heart a chance at love again. But Malaika has always been trolled for being ‘old enough’ for all this. But the 46-year-old diva could not be more proud of her age. In an exclusive conversation with Malaika on Bollywood Bubble’s Her Story, the diva opened up about facing age-shaming and people getting her age wrong.

Malaika told Bollywood Bubble, “To date, I dont understand what is the obsession with a women’s age. I mean what is it? If I am 45 why can’t I live the life that I want?”

Malaika went on to reveal that she feels her best at this period in her life and this age. The diva said she was all over the place in her 20s but has now found her standing, she said, “In my present, I feel I am my most productive, my most alert, my most wanting to strive. I probably didn’t feel like this 20 years back. I didn’t, I was still all over the place, I was still figuring it out, I was still happy that hey I was getting a cheque. Today I feel so much more sorted. I feel so much more able to empower myself and others around me. I don’t understand this obsession about age. Like ‘Oh! I am 45. Why?’ Why can’t I be able to conquer everything and do everything that I want to do?”

Malaika further talked about people getting her age wrong everything and we asked the diva if it angers her, “No, no. It doesn’t anger me, it just makes me realize that you’re not doing your homework. That’s it. I can’t do anything about it anymore. I have tried to say it. But clearly, there is a thing in people’s heads that I am probably hiding my age but I have never ever done it. I wear my age on my sleeve, I do not hide it. I dont feel the need to, I am very proud of the fact. I think if I can look a certain way, be a certain way at a certain age, why not? I am very proud of it. I am a proud 46-year-old woman who is living life on her terms and loving it and enjoying it.”
