In fact, when Apara’s father passed away in the year 2007, Darshan stood by her all through. Darshan, who was very close, to her father, would often text and they would continue talking for hours. According to the same source, it can be quoted, “Darshan was very close to Apara's father. On the particular day, Darshan got very emotional and both of them were constantly messaging each other. It indicates that they may get back together again.”
It is an undeniable fact that when it comes to separation and divorce, children are the ones who become a binding factor. Same is the case with Darshan and Aparna. Their daughter, Kushali, is the reason they are still so close to each other. And in fact, she is also the reason as to why the couple stayed together earlier despite the recurring marital problems. The source, quoted above, can be stated here, “After the birth of their daughter Khushali, they did not work together anymore. This is because they had decided that one of them would be there to look after their daughter. Both of them made an effort to keep Khushali away from their problems. Their daughter is one of the reasons why they are thinking of getting back together.”
Speaking about the plausibility of breaking the ice, Apara once said, “We have always remained the best of friends and there has been no animosity between us. I would love to get back together. I won't say anything beyond this now.”

Well, here we’re! Isn’t this an amazing story? Two people sharing the common interest of acting, getting married twice and they never divorcing each other but be best friends to each other?
