Actor Couple Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya Remember Guard Dhanpat Following Diwali Fire

On November 10, actress Divyanka Tripathi and her husband Vivek Dahiya posted an emotional tribute after a fire ripped through their Mumbai building a day before Diwali. The blaze resulted in the death of Dhanpat, the building’s guard, who had been a familiar face to the family for years.

Divyanka described Dhanpat as more than a security officer – he was a trusted confidant who greeted their children with warmth and promised to watch over them as they grew. She expressed disbelief that the joyous moments they imagined would remain only in memory after the night’s tragedy.

The couple recounted the frantic evacuation, the temporary loss of power, gas supply and lift functionality, and the lingering darkness that no light could dispel. Their final words were a promise to keep Dhanpat’s legacy alive by sharing his story with their boys, emphasizing that no one’s presence should ever be taken for granted. "Rest in peace, Dhanpat uncle," they wrote.
