Malaika Arora Khan and Arjun Kapoor's closeness has been a known fact for some time now. The two have in the past been linked to each other and gossip columns have hinted about their affair. But both parties have kept mum about it.

Ever since Malaika and Arbaaz Khan announced their separation, there has been fresh speculation about her affair with Arjun. While Arbaaz and Malaika tried to reconcile once, things eventually fell apart and the former couple have now filed for divorce.

A week back Arjun Kapoor was spotted coming out of Malaika's apartment building that added further fuel to the fire. A few days later Arjun posted a cryptic message on his Instagram page as well that read, "Let's disappear far far away from the madness...let's find solace in the arms of Mother Nature...let's just be".

While Malaika has maintained a stoic silence on the alleged affair, she recently broke her silence on the matter in an interview to a daily and said, "Arjun is a very good friend of mine. But people give a very different meaning to it which isn't true."

Considering all relationships in Bollywood begin as 'good friends' and culminate into an affair, we are waiting for more updates on this friendship as well.
