Malaika's father, 65, allegedly jumped from his apartment building in Mumbai's Bandra. An IANS report claimed, Anil Mehta had called both his daughters saying, "I'm tired", before allegedly jumping off the balcony. Anil Mehta's wife and Malaika and Amrita Arora's mother, Joyce Polycarp, has told the Mumbai Police that she was in the house when the incident took place. Around 9 am on Wednesday, she noticed her husband's slippers in the living room and began looking for him, per IANS.

According to news agency IANS, when she didn't find him in the balcony, she leaned over the railing and noticed that there was a commotion and a security guard in the building was shouting for help. This, she told the cops, was when she realised something was terribly wrong.

Malaika Arora was born in Thane near Mumbai. Her parents got divorced when she was 11 and she moved to Chembur with her mother, Joyce, and sister, Amrita. Joyce Polycarp is a Malayali Christian while Anil Mehta was from the Punjabi community and worked in the Indian Merchant Navy.
