Amaal Mallik was 15 when his ‘defeated' father told him to start earning for family: ‘Iske aage gaadi nahi chalegi meri'
Music composer Amaal Mallik is known for his unfiltered opinions on the way the music industry works today. He's had beef with the likes of T-Series top honcho Bhushan Kumar. But his father, Daboo Malik, also a composer, feels Amaal's forthright streak stems from the fact that he's a self-made man who has also been the family's sole breadwinner for the longest time. 'He's the first elder son to whom the father comes and says, 'Beta, main haar gaya (Son, I've lost)'. Which father does that to his 15-year-old innocent child? Daboo Malik comes home, hugs Amaal, and says, 'Iske aage gaadi chalegi nahi meri. Tu kuchh karega kya? (I can't work beyond this. Will you do something)?' revealed Daboo. In the interview with Vickey Lalwani, he continued, 'He's seen his father fall and lose from when he was 10 to 15 years old. There was a strong emotional upheaval. But nobody sees that. Everybody sees his outburst and critical ways, but that's his character now. He's taken that decision.' Amaal started working at the age of 16, immediately after completing his class 10. 'It's miraculous how Amaal did 2,000 to 3,000 jingles, worked with such big people as a programmer and arranger, he saw exponential technical growth. Armaan (Malik, singer and Amaal's younger brother) was just 10 then,' said Daboo, adding that Amaal helped drastically improve the deteriorating financial situation at home. 'A son like that, who feels he's earned everything with his blood and sweat, suddenly realizes he's getting sidelined and isn't the hero of this household anymore. That his younger brother was becoming the hero instead would have a mental impact on Amaal every day. I think that's a small mistake on part of the parents. But no one was doing it intentionally. We've to be very careful parents,' added Daboo. Amaal started learning music at the age of eight. He learnt piano at the Trinity College of Music, London, specializing in Western Classical, Jazz & Rock. He also learnt Indian classical music informally from his grandfather Sardar Malik. He began working as an assistant composer and background scorer in the Hindi film industry and the advertisement industry. He made his debut as the lead composer in Sohail Khan's 2014 action film Jai Ho. Also Read — Sexual assault allegations against Anu Malik 'shattered our family', says brother Daboo: 'We saw to it that he got back to work' Amaal's younger brother Armaan Malik started singing at the age of four. He started singing in films in 2006 with songs like Bum Bum Bhole from Aamir Khan's 2007 directorial debut Taare Zameen Par. He broke through in 2014, the same year as his brother did, with the song Naina in Shashanka Ghosh's 2014 romantic comedy Khoobsurat, which was composed by Amaal. Meanwhile, their father Daboo Malik, the younger brother of composer Anu Malik, started as an actor in 1988. He switched to composing music in 2000s, but hung up his boots by 2014, when his sons gained recognition for their work. The Malik family has been in the news lately for differences with each other. Armaan distanced himself from his family, while Amaal lent him support.

The latest addition to the YRF Spy Universe is drawing high anticipation, with early estimates suggesting an opening day of over ₹ 20 crore. According to figures from Sacnilk, advance bookings across India have already brought in ₹ 9.04 crore. When blocked seats are included, the total jumps to an impressive ₹ 17.29 crore – a sign of growing interest ahead of the Independence Day weekend. The Hindi 2D version remains the biggest draw, earning ₹ 5.56 crore. Including premium formats such as IMAX 2D, 4DX and ICE, the Hindi total rises to ₹ 6.18 crore. The Telugu dubbed version has made around ₹ 3 crore, mainly from 2D screenings, while the Tamil version has so far earned about ₹ 9.34 lakh. Andhra Pradesh leads advance and blocked ticket sales with an estimated ₹ 2.57 crore, followed closely by Telangana at ₹ 2.34 crore. Maharashtra also stands at ₹ 2.34 crore, while Delhi and Karnataka have reached ₹ 2.03 crore and ₹ 1.04 crore respectively. The numbers are promising but War 2 has a high benchmark to match. The first War (2019) opened with ₹ 53.35 crore and went on to make ₹ 166.25 crore in its first weekend, eventually grossing ₹ 318.01 crore in total. Whether the sequel can match or exceed this will depend on its run after release. Meanwhile, the Rajinikanth starrer Coolie is ahead in the weekend box office race, securing ₹ 24.59 crore in advance bookings. With blocked seats included, its tally rises to ₹ 32.64 crore. Despite the clash, both War 2 and Coolie have already secured a combined ₹ 50 crore in weekend earnings from advance ticket sales alone. With one day still remaining, the totals are expected to climb further.
