Anu Malik recently opened up about his relationship with his brothers, Daboo Malik and Abu Malik, putting to rest rumours about tension within their famous musical family.
In a heartfelt chat with Instant Bollywood, Anu emphasised that love and closeness have always been at the core of their bond.
He said, “Daboo Malik aur Abu Malik sirf mere bhai nahi hai woh mere jigar ke tukde hai. Aur jahan tak unke bachchon ka sawaal hai woh hamari jaan hai aur hamesha jaan rahenge.” It’s clear that Anu’s affection extends beyond his brothers to their children, including well-known singers Amaal and Armaan Malik.
Anu also addressed the common perception that the Malik family is quick to anger. With a smile, he explained, “Kisi ne bola ki unko gussa aata hai… toh maine kaha, bhai, humein gussa nahi aata. Yeh Malik trait hai. Gussa mohabbat ka hota hai. Hum log ek the, ek hai, aur ek rahenge.” For him, what looks like anger is really just a passionate way of showing love — something very much part of who they are as a family.
That said, their journey hasn’t always been smooth, especially on the professional side. Although they share a strong personal connection as sons of the late composer Sardar Malik, the brothers have experienced their fair share of rivalry.
Amaal Malik, Daboo’s son, gave some insight into this dynamic during a conversation with Siddharth Kannan.
“When Daboo Malik and Anu Malik meet, you can’t separate them. They are like mad brothers,” Amaal said, capturing both the closeness and occasional friction. “But, in the professional dynamics and jealousy, Anu Malik can get a little fiery. They have had issues with each other on the professional front.”

Amaal also revealed how this rivalry affected his father’s career. “Anu Malik was overly competitive with my father. He wanted to prove that he is the best composer from his family and often tried to sabotage my dad’s career. Every time my dad got a movie, he would go and snatch his work from the producers by offering to work for little money or even free.”
It’s a reminder that while the Malik family is united by love, their shared passion for music has also led to competition — a complicated but deeply human side to their story.
