In a shocking turn of events, the family residence of celebrity couple, Kanwar Arsalan and Fatima Effendi, went up in flames a few days back. The devastating incident was brought to light by Arsalan himself, who took to Instagram to share the heartbreaking news.

Accompanied by worrisome visuals of their smoke-filled kitchen, Arsalan put up an Instagram story with overlaying text that read: "Our house caught on fire today early morning. Alhamdulillah, everyone is safe! Please remember us in your prayers."

Describing the harrowing ordeal in more detail, Effendi and Arsalan dedicated an episode of their vlog recounting the events that led to the accident. “Fries were cooking on the stove, which is what caused the fire, I think,” Arsalan noted seriously in the video over sounds of ongoing repairs in the background.

“We were all awake in our rooms after praying Fajr…all of a sudden we heard Ahmad’s scream and loud smash of glass breaking,” the visibly shaken up Betiyaan actress recalled.
