Malaika & Arbaaz Give New Meaning To Publicity Stunt
April 19, 08 by Ballz Bollywood!
A leading Mumbai newspaper ran a story yesterday claiming that Malaika Arora & Arbaaz Khan’s decade old marriage is headed for splitsville. The actress herself did not deny the story and in fact even went as far as to fuel rumours of a divorce by telling reporters that Arbaaz is "remarrying” and that she didn’t have the slightest idea of "where he is.”
Well, turns out that Malaika’s statements were part of well-planned campaign to promote ‘Ponds beauty range’. "It is part of an ad campaign for a product that Arbaaz and I are launching. Rather re-launching. See, the concept of the ad is that he comes towards the end and re-proposes to me,” says Malaika.
But news outlets aren’t laughing. This morning, angry ’journalists’ threatened to boycott Malaika while others cornered Arbaaz Khan at the event and accused him and Malaika of playing games with the sacred institution of marriage.
You tell us: Do you think Malaika served the media right by turning the tables on them or was this just a desperate cry for attention?
