Malaika Arora’s mother Joyce stranded in Dubai amid Middle East tensions; says, “I could see the missiles”m Bollywood actor Malaika Arora’s 72-year-old mother, Joyce Arora, is currently stranded in Dubai after her scheduled return flight to Mumbai was cancelled amid escalating tensions across parts of the Middle East. The disruption follows Iran’s reported retaliatory attacks on several US allies in the region — including the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia — after American and Israeli strikes on Iranian territory on February 28. The situation has led to temporary suspension and rescheduling of multiple flight operations across the region. Joyce had travelled to Dubai to celebrate her elder sister’s birthday. A few days later, her own birthday, which falls on March 2, was also marked with family. She was scheduled to return to Mumbai on March 3 but received a notification that her flight had been cancelled due to the ongoing conflict. Speaking to ETimes, Joyce said, “I must say, I feel safe here. In fact, I could see the missiles being intercepted in the sky with my own eyes. It was frightening, but the Dubai military is doing a fantastic job. ” She added that her daughters, Malaika and Amrita Arora, are in Mumbai and are in constant touch with her, calling several times a day to check on her well-being. With some flight operations gradually resuming, Joyce has expressed hope that she will be able to return home soon.
