Suniel Shetty say daughter Athiya is blessed to have married KL Rahul
Athiya Shetty Birthday 2023: Actress Athiya Shetty tied the knot with cricketer KL Rahul in January 2023. Father Suniel Shetty has time and again elucidated how grateful he and his family are to welcome someone like KL Rahul into their family. In an interview with Mid-day some time ago, the veteran actor said some of the most beautiful things about his son-in-law.
When asked what he would warn KL Rahul about, Suniel said, "Don't be such a beautiful human being, that we seem inferior in front of you. You cannot be such a good boy that everybody believes that this is what goodness is about and not you. That's the kind of child he is. I always tell Athiya you are blessed. I tell her she is blessed, not necessarily the other way around. Of course, Athiya is a beautiful child⦠My mother, wife, sister, sisters-in-law are all obsessed with him."
Shetty took a break from his acting career and has focused on a more holistic way of life in the past years. Talking about how the change came about in his life, the actor said that he decided not to pursue his career as nothing good was coming out of it.
"I realized 10 years ago, where am I going? What is with this career? I have been making mistakes, I cannot get out of that. I made the decision to say I don't want to do this anymore. Let me take a break and then decide if I want to come back. In two years, dad fell unwell, so that got me spending 3-4 years with him. Then came the pandemic. This entire gap led to the realization that there are so many other things that I could do in life. It was good that I was pursuing it, till the time good was coming to me. When junk is coming to me, who are they to decide whether I should accept it or not? Then realizing that food matters, spice matters, training matters, and being happy matters, is when the change in physical self also came," he said.
