The Khan family enjoyed a touching reunion on a sunny Wednesday afternoon in Mumbai. Arbaaz Khan, accompanied by his parents Salim Khan, Salma Khan, and Helen, dined at a new restaurant owned by his ex-wife Malaika Arora and their son Arhaan Khan.
According to a report by Indian Express, photos and videos from this rare family gathering circulated on social media, but many noticed that Arbaaz’s wife, Sshura, was absent from the lunch. In one video, Arhaan was seen sharing a sweet moment with his grandmothers, Salma and Helen, as he assisted them in climbing the restaurant stairs.

Despite the years since Arbaaz and Malaika’s separation, the videos highlighted the strong bond within the Khan family. Arbaaz was spotted in a blue-and-white striped shirt, trousers, and white shoes, pausing to pose for photographers outside. His son Arhaan was also seen with his cousin, Nirvaan Khan, the son of Sohail Khan.
Meanwhile, Malaika arrived at her restaurant dressed in black, ready to greet her family. For context, Malaika Arora and Arbaaz Khan married in 1998 and welcomed their son Arhaan in 2002. After 18 years together, they separated in 2016 and finalized their divorce in 2017.

Despite their split, they continue to co-parent Arhaan and are frequently seen together at family dinners. Arbaaz later had a brief relationship with Giorgia Andriani before marrying Sshura Khan last year, whom he met on the set of Patna Shukla. On the other hand, Malaika was in a long-term relationship with actor Arjun Kapoor, which ended recently.
Arhaan Khan has also been making headlines with his own YouTube talk show, where he invited his mother Malaika for an episode of “Dumb Biryani,” leading to a lighthearted conversation where she remarked on how much he resembles his father, Arbaaz, in terms of habits and personality.
