Bollywood actress Malaika Arora has recently gotten a new tattoo, marking an important phase in her life. The actres who has been in the spotlight recently regarding her relationship with former Sri Lankan cricketer Kumar Sangakkara has recently inked the words ‘Sabr, Shukr’ on her arm.
In a recent conversation with ETimes, Malaika Arora talked about the meaning and significance of her new tattoo. “For me, tattoos come at significant turning points in my life. I don’t get them just for the sake of it, they have deep personal meaning. This particular one symbolises the year that 2024 has been for me. The words ‘patience’ (sabr) and ‘gratitude’ (shukr) are very comforting. These words resonate with me when I think about where I am now, compared to where I was just a year ago.”
Malaika’s life has been a journey of roller-coaster since last year. In September 2023, she lost her father, Anil Mehta. She also went through a breakup with her long-time boyfriend, actor Arjun Kapoor which marks the end of her six-year relationship.
