Malaika Arora, who won people’s hearts with the song ‘Chaiyya-Chaiyya’ with Shahrukh Khan, needs no introduction. The actress is still ruling TV and films because of her glamorous dance.

Malaika will celebrate her 52nd birthday on Thursday. But very few people know that he has worked very hard to make his name and career. The journey from a small house to luxury flats has not been easy for them.

Malaika Arora was born on 23 October 1973 in Mumbai. His mother Joyce Polycarp is Malayali and father came from a Punjabi Hindu family. But Malaika has always been more inclined towards her mother and she likes Malayali dishes rice, sambar and fish curry. The actress always celebrates Malayalam festivals with her family. But Malaika’s life was not always so luxurious.

She herself had revealed that she once lived in a house so small that it could be compared to a matchbox. Malaika became very emotional after watching an act in a reality show because the act was based on poverty.

Malaika had mentioned that people jokingly say that our house is like a matchbox, but I have lived in such a house in my childhood… We used to live on rent and had to face a lot.

However, today the actress is the owner of a big luxury house with four rooms, which is worth crores, while she has sold her other house in Andheri for about Rs. 6 crores.

Let us tell you that Malaika never wanted to enter the acting profession, she always wanted to become a teacher, but her interest in dance has today made her the item girl of B-town.

To improve her dancing, she took training in ballet, jazz ballet and Bharatanatyam, and she started this training at the age of just four years.

On the strength of her hard work in dance, Malaika gave hit songs like ‘Chaiyya Chaiyya’ (Dil Se), ‘Munni Badnaam Hui’ (Dabangg), ‘Kaal Dhamaal’ (Kaal), ‘Aap Jaisa Koi’, ‘Hey Baby’, and ‘Pandey CT’ (Dabangg 2) and now she has once again wreaked havoc with ‘Poison Baby’ in ‘Thaama’.

Apart from doing item numbers, Malaika judges dance reality shows and also runs her own yoga fitness campaign. She has also made her mark at the international level through modeling.
