1. Arpita is the adopted daughter of Salim Khan. While some reports claim that it was his first wife (Salma) who adopted her, others claim that it was Helen who had picked up crying Arpita from the street, when she was a baby and later adopted her. Some reports also suggest that Arpita's mother had died on a footpath leaving the child alone. Arpita Khan, the adopted sister of Salman Khan was born and brought up in Mumbai. She is famous for being Salman Khan's little sister. She is the youngest member of Bollywood's famous khan family.

2. Recently Arpita got a tattoo of a star, containing the names of all her family members — Salim Khan, mothers Salma and Helen, brothers Salman, Arbaaz. Sohail, sister Arpita and friend Deeksha. The other two words visible on the star are Love and Luck.

3. Arpita studied at London College of Fashion and holds a degree in fashion marketing and management. Currently she is working at an architectural and interior design firm in Mumbai. The bride-to-be never really had any interest in being in front of the camera, quite unlike her fiance, Ayush Sharma who is willing to give up his business for the sake of acting. However, Arpita wants to launch a fashion brand on her own and also wants to try her hand in film production.

She is closest to her mom (Salma Khan) and brother Sohail on this she said, "Mom is someone I share the minutest details with. As for Sohail bhai, he is the one I turn to more often than not." Dad Salim Khan is not far behind either as he always bails her out whenever she's facing a decision problem. "Whenever I'm confused, my dad helps me see things for what they are. I can always fall back on him." Arpita Khan is very close to Salman and shares a beautiful bond with him. On her bonding with Salman Khan she reveals "More often than not, Salman bhai is very busy. But we have an easy going relationship."

Salman's Expensive Gift :-

Apart from spending crores of money on the marriage, Salman has also gifted a lavish flat to Arpita. It is believed that the actor had purchased the three-bedroom terrace flat a few ago to gift it to his sister. The flat is said to be costing around Rs 16 Cr and is situated at Carter Road. It is also very close to Galaxy Apartments where Salman stays with his family.

The big fat Bollywood wedding finally concludes and Arpita and Aayush Sharma are totally thrilled with the celebrations. But like a typical traditional style, the bride chose to thank her family and friends in her wedding speech.

SALIM KHAN REVEALED:- "YOU FEEL ANXIETY. YOU WONDER HOW SHE WILL MANAGE HER HOUSE, SHE HAS TO PROVE HERSELF AS A GOOD WIFE. I ALSO KNOW THAT SHE IS ON HER OWN AND WILL HAVE HER OWN EXPERIENCES AND CHALLENGES,"

The wedding festivities of Bollywood actor Salman Khan's sister Arpita concluded with a grand reception and now the Khan-daan seems to be feeling their beloved beti's absence. An emotional Salim Khan spoke about his advice to his daughter for her married life, how he sobbed on her bidaai and the void she has left behind.

In an interview given to The Times of India, Salim Khan said he had advised his daughter to treat her in-laws exactly as she treated her parents. "Love and respect your in-laws as much as you have loved and respected your own family and parents. There should not be any distinction in that."

Mr Khan also revealed that he was anxious about the challenges that lay before Arpita.

"You feel anxiety. You wonder how she will manage her house, she has to prove herself as a good wife. I also know that she is on her own and will have her own experiences and challenges. She also saw her father's marriage that stayed for 50 years and she would be thinking of how she too, can keep her marriage for 50 years. But I have met her in-laws and woh achche and simple log hain. She is blessed to have them."

Salim Khan also admitted he cried during his daughter's bidaai. "When you bring up a child, especially a daughter, for so many years and when she leaves your house, you feel so emotional that it is natural for you to start crying. The same thing happened to me when Alvira had got married. It had to happen with Arpita too."

For him, life is a "vacum after Arpita's marriage. "It feels like a vacuum. Kya aap kabhi bhi apni sabse chhoti ungli ki tareef karte ho kisi se? (Do you ever praise your smallest finger to anyone?) Do you ever thank God for giving your smallest finger? No. We don't even pay attention to it. But for some reason, due to an accident or otherwise, if God took away that finger of yours, you realise its value and utility. It's only when it is not there that you realise that you needed that finger in every work of your life. But it's a catch-22 situation. You feel the pain when your daughter is getting married as you want her to be with you forever, but at the same time, you also want her to get married, have her own family and kids."

Arpita Khan got married to Aayush Sharma in Taj Falaknuma Palace, Hyderabad in a lavish ceremony. And she thought this is the best place and time to convey her thank you speech with the who's who including Aamir Kha, Katrina Kaif and Karan Johar present in the function.

Arpita Khan :- But emotional that Arpita was, she asked Bollywood beauty Priyanka Chopra to read out her speech to family and friends.

Times of India reported that PC obliged and went onstage to say, "Arpita is afraid she might break down, so I am going to read out what she has to say... "

PC then began read Arpita's letter which said, "I am the luckiest girl to be brought up in a family like mine. Sohail bhai and I shared the same room until he got married - he's like a friend to me. Arbaaz bhai is like my guide, he always told me what's good and what's bad. Salman bhai though, has the biggest heart. For him, I can do no wrong. Everything I did, he was there to support me."
