Malaika Arora reacts after a young boy pulls her cheek on India’s Best Dancer 2, watch

Malaika Arora shared a video on Instagram featuring a few young fans on the sets of India’s Best Dancer 2. The actor-television presenter is one of the judges on the dance reality show. 

In the video shared on Sunday, Malaika Arora is dressed in a golden, bodycon dress and seated on the judge’s chair. She is surrounded by a small group of fans. While she held on to one of the little girl’s hands, a boy in the group reached out to her cheek and pulled it. Visibly surprised, Malaika broke into a smile and pulled his cheek in return. 

She then gave the children a group hug. Malaika used the song Joy of Little Things by When Chai Met Toast in the background and shared the video with a series of hashtags in the caption. These include Children’s Day, fun onset, the child in you, and India’s Best Dancer.

Malaika has had a cheek-pulling incident previously on the dance reality show which left her a little scared. At the launch event last month, Malaika was asked about her reaction when a contestant reached for her cheeks. She said, “Yes I was a bit frightened because these are Covid times. He suddenly came near me and started touching my cheeks. I got really scared for a second. He was doing it with a lot of love and I feel very, very touched and very happy. But yes, I was bit scared for that second. I was thinking if his hand was sanitised.”
