Renowned television actors Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya recently experienced a harrowing incident during their romantic European getaway. The couple, who had been sharing picturesque moments of their journey on social media, faced an unexpected setback when their belongings, worth approximately ₹10 lakh, were stolen. The stolen items included their passports, wallets, and all the shopping they had done during their trip.
The couple was in Europe celebrating their eighth wedding anniversary. In an interview with the Times of India, Vivek Dahiya revealed that the theft occurred shortly after their arrival in Florence. They had planned to explore the city and check out a potential property for their stay, but their excitement quickly turned into a nightmare.
“Everything about this trip has been incredible, except for this incident,” Vivek shared. “We arrived in Florence yesterday and planned to stay for a day. We went to check out a property we liked for our stay and left all our belongings in a car parked outside. However, when we returned to get our stuff, we were shocked to find that the car had been broken into, and our passports, wallets, money, shopping, and all our valuable items were gone. Fortunately, they left behind some old clothes and food items.”
Despite their efforts to seek help from the local police, the couple found little assistance. The authorities informed them that without CCTV cameras in the specific area where the theft occurred, they could not offer much help. The actors also attempted to reach out to the embassy, but it had already closed for the day.
Stranded in a small town near Florence, the couple has been relying on the support of their hotel staff. However, they are in urgent need of assistance from the embassy to return to India. “We require temporary passports and substantial help from the embassy to get back to India, as we have nothing with us,” Vivek added.
The incident has cast a shadow over what was supposed to be a memorable celebration for the couple, highlighting the challenges travellers can face when dealing with theft abroad.
