Speculations about the couple’s relationship status, which have been going on for some time, have gained fresh momentum after the recent Diwali picture. This pattern of omissions is not entirely new; Reports suggest that Arti was also absent from Sehwag’s Diwali 2024 post and other recent social media updates, such as his visit to the Vishwa Nagayakshi Temple in Kerala.
Rumors of marital discord have been fueled by the couple’s mutual action of unfollowing each other on Instagram, where Arti has also made her profile private, adding a layer of mystery. The couple, who married in 2004 and have two sons, Aryaveer and Vedant, have generally kept their personal lives away from the public domain.
