It is often said that love hurts. But there’s a fine line when that ‘hurt’ turns violent, aggressive and dangerous. And when you realise the signs of things getting out of control, it might be too late. Women, and even men, continue to live in fear and hope that things would get better one day, are tortured to death at the hands of the very people they love and trust. Domestic violence is a harsh reality of the twisted notion of love. Little did anyone know that Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai fame, Divya Bhatnagar had gone through the same torture before she succumbed to death after her battle with COVID-19.

It was on December 7 when Divya Bhatnagar had taken her final breath in the hospital, where she was undergoing treatment for COVID-19 and pneumonia. After getting admitted in November, her condition deteriorated and she was put on a ventilator. But unfortunately, she couldn’t make it. Post Divya’s demise, her close friend, Devoleena Bhattacharjee and brother, Devashish Bhatnagar had accused her estranged husband, Gagan of domestic violence. Divya and Gagan had tied the knot in December 2019, in the absence of their family members as they were against their relationship. After getting engaged in 2015, Divya and Gagan had a Gurudwara wedding last year.
Divya Bhatnagar’s social media page is now handled by her brother, Devashish Bhatnagar and a few hours ago, he posted the screenshots of her chat, revealing the details of how Gagan used to threaten her. Devashish captioned the post as “I wish i could get to know all this. I wish i could tell her that it is okay to take stand for yourself. I wish i could tell her that girls are the most powerful human species. I wish i could save her from this devil. Please speak up before it is too late and specially to your family. Because you can share things with friends but only family can take you out from messes.

Devashish had said, “Gagan started torturing Divya physically and mentally soon after their marriage. She had written a note on November 7, in which she had stated that Gagan tortures and abuses her. We found the note in her cupboard yesterday. She had also approached the police and filed an NC on November 16 against him, following an episode of domestic abuse. I had told her to stay strong when I got to talk to her during her hospitalisation.”

Sharing a selfie with Divya, Devashish had written, “Tere bina toh main b ek zinda shareer hu bas. Teri kami kaun puri karega ? Aaja na yaar firse ek baar. Itnj jaldi thhodi jana tha. I cant even type the goodbye words. Because tu toh meri badi hai na yaar. Kaise kategi ye zindagi ab? I just wish tu mere aas paas rahe with peace. I love you and i cant even express how much i will always do. @divyabhatnagarofficial My celebrity, my motivator, my everything.” (Also Read: When Salim Khan Had Revealed He Wasn't Allowed To Meet His Mother For Four Years Before Her Death)
