“I’ve reached a point where I can no longer keep silent about the pain I’ve endured. For years, I’ve been made to feel like I am less, despite spending days and nights toiling away to create a safe life for people. I cancelled every dream of mine, only to find myself being spoken down to and questioned about what I’ve ever done. I have spent my blood, sweat, and tears to create each of the 126 melodies that have been released over the last decade,” Amaal wrote in his post.
Daboo Malik’s Heartfelt Response
Following Amaal’s revelation, his father, veteran music composer Daboo Malik, broke his silence with a touching social media post. On Saturday, Daboo shared a picture with his son, where Amaal is seen affectionately kissing his father’s cheek. Accompanying the image, Daboo expressed his emotions in just three simple words: “I Love You.”
The Malik Family Rift
Amaal’s post also hinted at a growing distance between him and Armaan Malik, attributing it to their parents. The revelation has sparked discussions among fans, with many expressing support for Amaal’s bravery in speaking out about mental health struggles and family pressures.
Amaal made his debut as a composer in 2014 with Salman Khan’s film Jai Ho. Over the years, he has carved a niche for himself in the music industry, composing and singing several hit songs. Despite his professional success, his recent statement sheds light on the personal battles he has been fighting behind the scenes.
