After Helen, here is an "Item Girl" who seduces the viewer without being blatantly salacious.To call Malaika an Item girl would be to understate her ability to make it look like a traditional dance form. From 'Dil Se' to 'EMI' to 'Helloo India' to 'Dabangg', the Malaika numbers have been designed in such a way as to energise the viewer than to tickle his abs.
Recently, Malaika created a Guinness record, when she, along with a crowd of 1200, danced to the rhythm of "Munni Badnam Hui" for three minutes, in Melbourne, Australia. The record was for the largest crowd to dance to a song.
Malaika was born on August 23, 1973 to a Malayalee mother, Joyce Polycarp, and a Punjabi father, Anil Arora.
She met Bollywood actor Arbaaz Khan during a coffee ad shoot, fell in love, and got married in February, 1999.
She was named the 'sexiest mom' in Bollywood by Maxim magazine.
Before Bollywood opened its doors to her, Malaika was one of MTV India's most prominent VJ's, who did shows like 'Love Line' with Cyrus Broacha and 'Style Check'.
She has also been seen as judge in the reality show 'Nach Baliye' and and two seasons of 'Zara Nachke Dikha'.
"I feel like I've been on television forever. I get very involved with my shows. In fact, now I'm doing a style-based radio show in Dubai. It's a completely new medium. There I'm sitting with headphones talking away to an invisible audience. It's like talking to myself," says Malaika.
Malaika has appeared in numerous TV ads as well. She is currently the brand ambassador for Streax Hair Colour.
Her Bollywood career began with a film called 'Aaja Meri Jaan' in 1993.
With the "Chaiyya Chaiyya" number from 'Dil Se', opposite Shah Rukh Khan, Malaika gained international fame.
