Startup Or ₹100 Cr Film: What’s Harder? Malaika Arora Answers In Rapid Fire | BT Podcast

In this engaging rapid-fire round from the Business Today podcast, actor and entrepreneur Malaika Arora sits down with journalist Aabha Bakaya for a candid conversation about money, fame, entrepreneurship and personal investments. Asked whether signing a ₹100-crore film is harder than building a profitable startup, Malaika shares why she believes getting a startup off the ground and sustaining it can be an even bigger challenge. During the rapid-fire segment, she also weighs in on investment choices such as gold, real estate and personal fitness, revealing why she believes gold remains a strong long-term option while emphasising the importance of investing in oneself. The conversation turns playful as she chooses between Karan Johar and Farah Khan as a potential business partner, reflects on whether money is simply a by-product of fame, and opens up about her most expensive habit — self-care. Calling herself “consistent and authentic”, Malaika offers an insightful glimpse into the mindset behind her personal brand and success.
