Media reports are rife about liquor baron Vijay Mallya’s third marriage with former Kingfisher Airlines air hostess Pinky Lalwani.

It has been said that the couple has decided to get hitched after dating for three years. On several occasions, Vijay Mallya and Pinky Lalwani pictures were taken together but ever since the news surfaced about the couple confirmed being an item, the social media has gone berserk wanting to know everything about the tainted tycoon’s girlfriend and reportedly wife-to-be.

The businessman who went from being the ‘King of Good Times’ to ‘wilful loan defaulter’ is accused of syphoning Rs 9000 crore from 17 Indian banks! It is no easy living when you’re tagged as a malefactor and governments chasing after you to recover the money.

Mallya who has been married twice to Sameera Tyabjee and Rekha Mallya is all set to get third time lucky. Here is everything to know about Pinky Lalwani, the new Mrs Vijay Mallya-to-be along with some gorgeous photographs of hers.

• • Pinky Lalwani is third (officially) woman to become a part of Vijay Mallya’s life. The 62-year-old business tycoon who fled the country in 2016 on a pretext of being closer to his children and in reality, avoid paying the gargantuan amount in form of loans to banks is believed to have found a supporting partner in Lalwani. Despite sharing a big age gap, Lalwani has been by the Kingfisher Airlines founder’s side in his legal troubles.
  • Pinky Lalwani was photographed at the public gallery at Mallya’s extradition case at Westminster Magistrates Court in London. It showed the amount of care she carried for her much-older partner and is committed to being by the person in ups and downs of life.

• • It would be not wrong to say Vijay Mallya has a special liking for air hostesses. Pinky Lalwani was working as an air hostess with Mallya-owned Kingfisher Airlines. It is believed the pair first met in 2011 on the flight and later love bloomed. Interestingly, Mallya’s first wife Sameera Tyabjee was an Air India flight attendant with whom he fell in love instantly while travelling to the USA in 1986. Sameera is also the mother of the couple’s son Siddharth Mallya, an aspiring actor.
  • Pinky Lalwani celebrated her third anniversary with Vijay Mallya recently. They were reportedly in a live-in relationship and it is believed seeing the love and dedication the young woman has towards him, Vijay Mallya has decided to tie the knot and make things official between them.
  • So far, no word on Vijay Mallya-Pinky Lalwani’s wedding is announced with Mallya still being married to his second wife Rekha Mallya. Rekha was Vijay’s childhood friend and sweetheart with whom the liquor baron got married in 1993 after coming to know about her divorce. The pair has two daughters Leanna Mallya and Tanya Mallya. Contrary to Vijay Mallya’s personality, Rekha is believed to maintain a low profile.

• • Apart from being the love of Vijay Mallya’s life, Pinky Lalwani is also close to his mother. The young girlfriend has been spotted at parties hosted by Lalitha Ramaiah, Vijay’s mother on a number of occasions. She also shares a healthy rapport with business tycoon’s son Siddharth Mallya and has often been pictured with him during events and parties.
