Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora

While social media has been abuzz about Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora's alleged relationship, the Kapoor lad has finally responded to the reports. On his relationship rumours, India's Most Wanted actor said that he felt comfortable making it official as the media treated them with dignity and respect.

In a recent interview with Filmfare, when Arjun was asked what made him come out in the open about his relationship, he said, "We've come out because we feel the media has given us dignity. There's a certain understanding the media has... they've been respectful, kind, honest and decent about it. That is why I felt comfortable."

The 2 States actor further said, "Where the paps are concerned, we give them photos when walking in and out of a place. It is normal. There's certain ease. We're not doing anything wrong. I don't want that story being conveyed that we're still hiding when we're not. They understood that."

However, Arjun said that he is not thinking about marriage presently. He said, "I'm not getting married. I understand why there are speculations. 33 for most people in India is a great age to get married, but not for me. I still have time."
