In February 2018, Malik did a self-love photo-shoot with his friend Bhumika Bhatia. The photo-shoot featured Malik himself, and a doppelganger version of him in a series of pre-wedding style photos. The inspiration for the shoot came to Malik after the constant pressuring of his relatives for him to get married. Malik said that the purpose of the photo-shoot was to promote the importance of self-love. While talking to Indian Express about the photoshoot, Malik said, “It was a mix of too many ‘just-got-married’ posts on Facebook and the love I have for myself. It’s just a very basic (and funny) reminder for people to love themselves more often and truly appreciate themselves for who they are”.

  1. I haven¦t checked in here for some time as I thought it was getting boring, but the last several posts are great quality so I guess I will add you back to my everyday bloglist. You deserve it my friend 🙂

  2. I’ve been surfing on-line more than 3 hours these days, yet I by no means discovered any attention-grabbing article like yours. It is lovely value enough for me. In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made excellent content as you did, the internet might be a lot more useful than ever before. “Dreams have as much influence as actions.” by Stephane Mallarme.
