How Arpita Entered Salim Khan’s Household
Once, Salim Khan, during his regular morning walks, noticed an ill beggar on the footpath seeking alms with her young daughter. Seeing the condition of the lady, and the subsequent state of the little girl, the kind-hearted Salim ji started getting food for the duo.
Then one day, when the acclaimed writer-lyricist was on his regular walk, he saw that the lady had passed away, and her little daughter was crying. Salim ji knew he couldn’t leave the girl alone on the cruel streets of Bombay to fend for herself. So, he held her hand gently, and brought her home.
Once there, he asked the little girl her name. She replied, with tears still in her eyes, “Arpita”. Salim ji introduced the girl to his family, who gladly welcomed her into their household. Soon, the process of adoption followed.

Arpita is still close to Arjun and she stood by him during his mother's cancer as well.
Nihar Pandya- Deepika Padukone's former boyfriend and model Nihar Pandya was apparently also Arpita Khan's boyfriend at one point of time. If rumours are anything to go by then after dating Arjun Kapoor, Arpita set her eyes on model Nihar Pandya. But theirs wasn't a long lasting relationship and the two broke up soon after. Nihar Pandya was earlier dating Deepika Padukone when she was just a model. After Deepika and Arpita, Nihar was in a relationship with Gauahar Khan.
Angad Bedi- After her last relationship with Nihar Pandya crumbled, Arpita met Angad Bedi through a common friend. Angad Bedi is cricketer Bishan Singh Bedi's son and an actor.
