Indian TV actors Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya were having the best time of their lives on their European holiday before the unfortunate incident happened with the celebrity couple.

Divyanka and Vivek were robbed in the Italian city of Florence when they were out to check the place where they were going to stay. Essential belongings like passports, wallets, money and other things were stolen from the car. As per the reports, their belongings valued at approximately₹10 lakh ($11,970)were robbed.

Talking about the theft, Vivek shared howthey became a robbery victim.

In an interview with The Times of India, he said, “Everything about this trip has been incredible, except for this incident. 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.”

Divyanka and Vivek, who are one of the mostrenowned couples on Indian television, were in Europe to celebrate their eighth wedding anniversary. However, the couple's romantic gateway turned into a nightmare after they entered Florence.

Speaking further, Vivek shared how no police assistant was provided to them. “We tried contacting the local police, but they dismissed our case, saying that without CCTV cameras in that specific area, they can’t help us. They even felt there was no point in them visiting the location. The police station shuts at 6 pm, and after that, they can’t offer any assistance. We also tried reaching out to the embassy, but unfortunately, they had already closed for the day," he said.

The couple's trip has been cut short and they are doing everything possible to return to India.Currently, the couple are in a small town near Florence with no money and urgently requires bureaucratic assistance.

“We are in a small town near Florence. The hotel staff has been kind and helpful to us. But we are stuck without any cash and urgently need the embassy’s assistance. We require temporary passports and substantial help from the embassy to get back to India, as we have nothing with us," Viveksaid.
