Mailaika Arora no longer wants to use the KHAN surname.

After a blissful relationship of 18 years,
Mailaika Arora and Arbaaz Khan mutually
ended their marriage on May 11.
Now, since the couple is officially divorced,
Mailaika Arora no longer wants to use the
"Khan" surname.
According to a leading tabloid, Mailaika was
invited as a chief guest for an event in
Vadodara recently and her chair was tagged
with her name on it as "Malaika Arora
Khan."
It is being reported that the actress was not
comfortable with the entire situation and
asked the organisers to remove the "Khan"
from her name.
The organisers made the required changes
and rectified the mistake. However, it's
strange that her social media handles still
have her name as Malaika Arora Khan.
The couple had tied the knot in 1998 and
filed for a divorce in November 2016
through mutual consent. Initially, there were
rumours that they might reconcile and
Arbaaz's family wanted that too but it didn't
happen. They continue to remain on cordial
terms till today.
Malaika has got the physical custody of their
14-year-old son, Arhaan, Arbaaz has been
granted access to them whenever he wants.
A leading daily quoted a source saying that
Malaika did not seek any alimony or
property from Arbaaz.
Both Arbaaz and Malaika yesterday
appeared before the family court where
they met principal marriage counselor VS
Athavale for five minutes and were then
granted divorce by the Family Court judge.
The two had arrived together for the Justin
Bieber concert which was held a day before
on May 10, 2017, at the DY Patil Stadium in
Navi Mumbai.

what about son Arhaan Khan still khan or Arora?

Is she going to be a "Kapoor" now then? 😆

Her first name is famous enough

Doesn't want to use khan surname...only wants to use Khan money...

It's common for a woman to drop her husband's name after a divorce...

They are officially divorced 😲 I thought they would get back.

What is the need to use the surname when she is not part of the family?

I mean... she's not really a Khan anymore now is she? IDK why that would come as a surprise
