Bigg Boss OTT 3 fame Armaan Malik and Kritika's two-year-old son gets diagnosed with rickets; Payal gets emotional

Bigg Boss OTT 3 contestant Armaan Malik has gained significant attention due to his marriages to both Payal Malik and Kritika Malik. The popular YouTuber frequently shares glimpses of his life with his two wives and their four children. However, the family often faces criticism for allegedly promoting polygamy. Recently, Kritika’s 2-year-old son, Zaid, was diagnosed with rickets, prompting his stepmother, Payal, to call out the trolls for their harsh remarks about the children.
In a recent vlog, Kritika Malik shared an update about her son Zain’s health. She revealed that the little one has been diagnosed with rickets, a condition commonly seen in children. It occurs due to a prolonged deficiency of vitamin D, leading to weakened bones and affecting mobility, including walking and other activities. While discussing the news with her fans, the devoted mother became emotional and was seen breaking down in tears.
In the same vlog, Kritika Malik expressed her belief that her child’s condition was a result of negative prayers directed at him. Devastated, she poured her heart out, saying, "Itne log galat-galat comments karte hain, dimag mein yehi sab cheezein chalti rehti hain. Upar se, aap logon ke comments itne gandhe hote hain." (So many people make hurtful comments, and these thoughts keep running through my mind. On top of that, your remarks are so vile).
Despite their direct responses and repeated requests for understanding, social media users continue to target Armaan, Payal, and Kritika. Their unconventional family dynamic frequently invites criticism, with many posting hateful remarks about their decision to live together.
Addressing the situation, Armaan’s first wife, Payal, who was sitting beside Kritika, spoke up emotionally. She said, "Aap log humein lakh badduaein de do, koi baat nahi. 19 mahine pehle test karwaya tha, tab kuch nahi tha. Kehte hain, baddua patthar ko bhi phaad deti hai, yeh baat sahi hai. Lekin hamare bacchon ko baddua mat diya karo." (You can send us countless bad wishes, it doesn’t matter. We had the test done 19 months ago, and everything was fine then. They say that bad wishes can break even a stone, and that is true. But please, don’t curse our children).
The deeply emotional stepmother pleaded, "Agar hamare bacche aapko ache lagte hain, toh bas pyaar diya karo, na ki baddua. Humein baddua de do, main toh waise bhi bimaar rehti hoon, mujhe de do. Golu (Kritika) ko de do, Armaan ko de do. Bas hamare bacchon ko mat diya karo." (If you find our children good, just give them love, not bad wishes. Direct your negativity toward us—I am unwell anyway, so give it to me. Give it to Golu (Kritika), give it to Armaan. But please, don’t curse our children).
In another vlog, Kritika shared an update with her fans, saying, "Zaid’s condition has worsened significantly. He got scared upon seeing the doctors." Concerned about his health, she took him to the hospital for further medical consultations, accompanied by her best friend, Payal.
Apart from Zaid, Armaan is also a father to three other children with Payal— their eldest son, Chirayu, and twins, Ayan and Tuba.
