TV couple Aashka Goradia and Brent Goble rushed to the rescue of their neighbour and former hockey player Appayya Chenanda's children after Appayya was found dead at his residence in Mumbai.


The 52-year-old former hockey player is believed to be murdered by his wife in Malad on Saturday over a family dispute. The wife, Amita, who later injured herself, is undergoing treatment at a civic hospital. Amita reportedly told her neighbours that her husband had stabbed himself to death after failing to kill her.

Apaiyya Chenanda, who played for Air India, Tata and Bombay hockey teams for several years, lived on the 27th floor of a plush society in Malad's Kachpada area with his 45-year-old wife, 23-year-old son, Ganpati, and a 15-year-old daughter. Aashka Goradia and Brent Goble reside in the same building.

Following the shocking incident, Aashka and Brent are looking after Chenandas' children, according to a report in Times of India.

Aashka's domestic help heard Amita scream for help in the afternoon. On reaching their home and seeing Amita lying on the floor, he rushed to get help. Soon, Aashka Goradia and Brent Goble arrived with other neighbours.

According to the police, on Saturday, when Appayya's children were out, his wife and he were enjoying a few drinks in the afternoon. The two soon started arguing over an issue, which took an ugly turn when Amita brought a knife from the kitchen and stabbed him seven times. She then injured herself, the police said.

The Malad police have registered a case of murder against Amita on the complaint of Ganpati, who is an engineering student.

An officer from Malad police station said Amita would be arrested once doctors declared her medically fit.
