Malvika and Pranav tied the knot in November last year in a dreamy wedding ceremony. Malvika posted a photo with her husband where they were seen wearing caps labelled "Mom and Dad" while holding a positive pregnancy test. The caption read, gamma_{0u} + Me = 3 #ourlittlesecret #babyontheway." Later in August 2025, Malvika announced the arrival of their daughter.

The couple shared a pastel-themed card with the message, "Pink bows, tiny toes, and love that overflows. Welcome to the world, baby girl. 23-08-2025. Malvika and Pranav. Malvika also shared glimpses from a maternity photoshoot. In one striking picture, she was seen in a red floral band-aid and draped skirt, posing with floral motifs adorning her baby bunk.

While Malvika has featured in several other advertisements and movies, her role as the young Pooja, aka Poo, in "Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham" remains the most iconic of them all.
