A couple of days ago, in an interview, Amaal Mallik revealed that a girl broke up with him as her parents were against his religion and career. The singer also revealed that his ex-girlfriend was a Jaat. He further stated that people think he is a Muslim, but his father (Daboo Malik) is a Muslim and his mother is a Saraswat Brahmin Hindu. Well, many times, when celebrities give statements revolving around religion, people often take it in a wrong way, and that happened with Amaal as well.

So, the singer took to X and clarified that he has not spoken anything against a community. Amaal tweeted, "For every one coming up with lovely articles & headlines about how I have spoken against a community you all are completely wrong. I spoke about my choices as an individual born to a Muslim father & a Hindu mother. It’s a secular mindset that I go wherever I find peace, whether it’s a mosque a mandir or a church. I don’t think some people understand that we are all Indians first before we wear any religious or spiritual badge… (sic)"

He further wrote, "To all my fellow indians that felt bad about certain comments I’m sorry for that, but I come from a simple understanding of life. Just remember - ‘Ramzan’ mein RAM and ‘Diwali’ mein ALI hai. So don’t let the news blindside you and overlook my actual conversation and sentiments. I am being subjected to a lot of mudslinging and by using my statements from a podcast, idiots on the internet want to create commmunal disharmony. Don’t fall for it. Love to all (sic)."

Amaal Mallik's Ex-Relationship

Amaal in the interview had revealed that he was in a relationship for around five years, and while he was going to perform a gig, the girl called and told him that she is getting married and if he came, she would elope with him. However, Amaal didn't agree to it and told her, "If your parents can’t accept my religion and respect my career, then I wish you the best.”

In the interview, the singer also revealed that there's no I of Islam in him. He said, "I don’t follow the religion to the T. I am the least religious guy. I believe in Karma. We neutrally respect every religion.”
