Singer Amaal Mallik opens up on distancing himself from his family; explains the real reason

Earlier this year, musician Amaal Mallik shared a surprising announcement: he was taking a step back from his family, including his brother Armaan Malik and parents Daboo and Jyoti Mallik. Now, Amaal has explained the reasons behind this decision, citing the need for personal healing and clarity.

During a conversation with Times Of India, Amaal revealed that he had suppressed his emotions for some time and felt a sense of release after sharing them publicly. He expressed the importance of sharing his feelings, which brought him relief. He mentioned that his parents understood his perspective, which strengthened their family bond. Although some criticized his actions, Amaal believed that his family became closer and more content as a result of these discussions.

He clarified that the post wasn't a sudden outburst but rather a culmination of long-held feelings. He acknowledged that not everyone desires public attention and emphasized the significance of the support he received from family, fans, and others. This support helped him realize his own worth and motivated him to persevere, as he had been on the verge of giving up. He also affirmed that his bond with his brother, Armaan Malik, is unchangeable and deeply valued by both of them.

In March, Amaal publicly shared his feelings, alleging that his parents' actions had caused a rift between him and his brother, Armaan. He stated that this situation had deeply affected him, leading him to prioritize his own well-being.

Through the last many years, they have left no opportunity to disturb my well-being & belittle all my friendships, my relationships, my mindset, my self-confidence. But I just kept marching on because I know I can, and I believe I’m unshakable

In the concluding portion of his now removed post, Amaal announced, with sadness, his decision to distance himself from personal relationships. He stated, "From now on, my interactions with my family will be strictly professional. This isn’t a decision made in anger, but one born from the necessity to heal and reclaim my life."
