Adding in her official statement, Aarti expressed her grief over the matter and said that she tried to contact her husband many times, but all her efforts failed. She wrote:
“For some time, I have sought several opportunities to speak directly with my husband, hoping to have an open dialogue in a manner that honours the commitment we made to one another and to our family. Sadly, that opportunity was not afforded to me, leaving both my children and me completely blindsided by this announcement.”
In the long, heartbreaking statement that Aarti issued, she also mentioned how deeply she has been hurt by this sole decision, which also affected the well-being of her children. According to Aarti, she has been subjected to ‘false public narrative’ and ‘character attacks’, which is why she chose to clear the air and put forward her side to the public.

My focus remains on the well-being of our children and helping them navigate this difficult time with the strength and integrity they deserve. I trust that in time, the full context of a situation will be understood.”
