Sorab Bedi and Malaika Arora's dating buzz

Earlier, in March 2026, Sorab and Malaika sparked dating rumours as a video of the two partying and dancing together surfaced online. They were also seen sharing a warm hug, which further fuelled the dating speculation. In an interview with Zoom, Sorab shared that he felt very disappointed when people made assumptions about his relationship with Arbaaz Khan’s ex-wife, Malaika Arora.

Sorab was quick to dismiss the dating rumours and called them baseless. He clarified that the bond they share is nothing more than a friendship. Recalling their first meeting, Sorab shared that he was introduced to her by his mentors, Delnaz Daruwala and Vahbiz Mehta. Back then, Sorab was reportedly into modelling. After being introduced by his mentors, Sorab soon became part of the same social circle as Malaika. Eventually, he got the opportunity to attend the same parties where Malaika was also present.
