Mumbai, March 20 (NationPress) Acclaimed artist Amaal Mallik has made startling disclosures via a social media update. He expressed that his family has been a hindrance in his life, leading him to make the difficult decision to sever connections with them.

Amaal's lengthy message on Instagram stated, “I’ve reached a stage where I can no longer remain silent about the anguish I’ve faced. For years, I’ve been made to feel inadequate despite dedicating countless hours to ensure a secure life for others. I’ve sacrificed every one of my dreams only to be belittled and questioned about my accomplishments. I have poured my heart and soul into creating each of the 126 tracks that have been released in the past decade.”

He further accused his parents of causing the rift between him and his brother, Armaan Malik.

“The behavior of my parents has been the reason for the growing divide between us as brothers, which has left a profound wound in my heart,” he stated.

The musician also opened up about battling clinical depression. He revealed, “Currently, I find myself devoid of peace, emotionally drained, and perhaps financially as well, but that is the least of my worries. What truly matters is that I am clinically depressed due to these circumstances. Yes, I hold myself accountable for my choices, but my self-worth has been repeatedly undermined by the actions of those close to me who have taken away parts of my essence.”

In a bold announcement regarding his family ties, Amaal wrote on the photo-sharing platform, “Today, with a heavy heart, I declare that I am stepping away from these personal connections. From now on, my interactions with my family will be strictly professional. This decision is not made out of anger but rather from the necessity to heal and reclaim my life. I refuse to allow the past to rob me of my future any longer. I am dedicated to reconstructing my life, piece by piece, with integrity and resilience.”
