The reason for Mehta's drastic step has not yet been confirmed. Arora or her family members are yet to comment on the situation. However, the paparazzi spotted Arora's ex-husband and actor Arbaaz Khan in front of Arora's parents' residence on Wednesday. Other family members were also captured arriving at the house.
Anil Arora was separated from Polycarp
Notably, before Mehta, Polycarp was married to Anil Arora, with whom she shared two daughters, Malaika and Amrita. After their divorce, Arora and her younger sister, actor Amrita Arora moved with their mother Polycarp to Chembur. Arora has talked about her parents' divorce and its impact on her and her sister in interviews before. While Arora was 11, Amrita was only six at the time. Polycarp got together with Mehta later. May his soul rest in peace.
