Veteran music composer Daboo Malik, father of acclaimed musicians Amaal Mallik and Armaan Malik, recently opened up about the difficult periods in his life and career, expressing immense gratitude for the support his family received from Salman Khan and his family. In an interview, Daboo Malik recalled times when he felt lost and broken in the music industry, emphasizing the Khans' contribution to his and his family's well-being.

Daboo Malik revealed that there was a time when he felt professionally paralyzed due to immense stress. He felt unable to ask for help, burdened by the thought that he couldn't provide for his children. It was during this challenging phase that Sohail Khan, along with Salim Khan and Salman Khan, stepped in and brought significant positive change to his life.

Daboo specifically praised Sohail Khan for his unwavering support. He recounted how Sohail provided emotional, physical, and financial assistance, guiding him and assuring him of his support. Daboo expressed that Sohail's belief in his ability was instrumental in helping him achieve success. He highlighted the Khan family's general approach to those seeking opportunities, noting that they value talent, sincerity, and hard work over mere star value. Daboo believes the Khan family has the influence to assist those who lack support, and he considers them a crucial support system for his family.

Daboo Malik also acknowledged that numerous lives, including those of Sajid-Wajid, Himesh Reshammiya, Amaal, Armaan, and Vishal Mishra, have been positively impacted by the Khan family.

In a recent interview with TellyMasala, Daboo Malik addressed various issues, including Ismail Darbar's displeasure with Amaal, his support for Zaid and Awez Darbar, family matters being discussed on television, the Anu Malik controversy, and his admiration for Tanya Mittal. He apologized for any hurt caused by Amaal's statements and clarified certain interpretations. He also spoke about Amaal's claims of being stranded during the 2006 Mumbai floods, stating that things might be misinterpreted and that Amaal might not be able to fully express what he wants to say.

Daboo explained Amaal's participation in Bigg Boss 19, noting Amaal's desire to be recognized as a star and to gain his own identity. Daboo acknowledged the controversy surrounding Amaal's severing ties with the family, attributing it to a build-up of various issues over time.

Daboo's brother, Abu Malik, also commented on Amaal's accusations against Anu Malik, stating that families often have disagreements. He affirmed that the family is united and will support each other in times of need. Abu Malik mentioned his role in introducing Daboo to Salman Khan, which he believes helped Daboo's career significantly.
