Amaal Malik RECALLED Getting Dumped By GF's Family Due To His Religion, 'She Was Ready To Elope..'

Amaal Malik has seen a lot of highs and lows in his professional and personal life. While people might think he achieved it all with luck, it wasn't like that. Coming to his personal struggle, the singer talked for the first time about his five-year-long relationship, which ended on a sad note as the girl's family wasn't ready to marry her. 

Amaal Malik revealed how his girlfriend rejected him due to his Muslim background

Recently, Amaal appeared on Siddharth Kannan's YouTube channel and talked about his ugly breakup with his girlfriend. The singer revealed that his former partner left him due to his 'Muslim identity' and his association with Bollywood. He added that it happened around the same time when he was working on Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Hindi film debut, Kabir Singh. Amaal said:

"Working on Kabir Singh was the biggest heartbreak for me. It was because I was going through a very difficult phase emotionally. The girl I was in a relationship with at that point in time married someone else.”

Explaining the reason for his breakup, Amaal revealed that the girl's parents were against his religion as he belonged to an Islamic background. Amaal added that he was about to perform a gig when the girl called him and revealed she was getting married. She wanted to elope with him, but he, in a dramatic way, denied it. He said:

"We were in relationship from 2014 to 2019. But her parents were against my religion and career. They didn’t want to associate their daughter with anyone from this industry. I was about to perform a gig when she called me and said she is getting married, but she would elope if I came to her. But, I guess the SRK from DDLJ in me woke up and said, ‘No, if your parents can’t accept my religion and respect my career, then I wish you the best.'"

Amaal Malik recalled how the separation left him heartbroken 

Amaal stated that people think that he is a Muslim, while it is his father, who is a Muslim, while his mother is a Saraswat Brahmin Hindu. He shared his religious beliefs and how he goes to church. Talking about it, Amaal said:

"People have this understanding that I am a Muslim. But, the truth is that I have a Muslim father. Whereas, my mom is a Saraswat Brahmin Hindu. I go to Mt Mary in Bandra when feeling empty. We are spiritual. We believe in God, but we don’t fear God. There is no ‘kattar’ anything. In my relationship, their problem was more with the industry than our religion. They were Jaats. They were like you are from Islamic background. I was like there is not even I of Islam in me. I don’t follow the religion to the T. I am the least religious guy. I believe in Karma. We neutrally respect every religion."

When Amaal Malik announced breaking all his ties from family and keeping it 'strictly professional'

Earlier, this year, Amaal took to his Instagram handle and posted pictures notes, announcing being diagnosed with clinical depression. He further blamed their parents for the rift between him and his brother, Armaan. He stated that their actions have created a huge distance between the siblings. He penned:

"This journey has been amazing for both of us, but my parents' actions have distanced us brothers from each other. All this has forced me to take steps for myself, as it has left a very deep scar in my heart."
