Athiya Shetty talks about her bond with her dad Suniel Shetty
In an interview with ETimes, Athiya Shetty talked about her father, Suniel Shetty, as she reflected on her bond with her father. The actress divulged about her equation with her parents. The actress stated that neither her brother (Ahan Shetty) nor she is a daddy or mommy’s child. She stated that there are certain things that they can talk to their father about or vice versa. They have a great relationship with both their parents.
However, having said that, the actress believes that each relationship demands a different perspective and outlook. The actress hailed her parents as her ‘friends’ in her growing-up years, and mentioned the respect was always there.
“Ahan (Shetty) is way more righteous. If I am angry, it shows. I can argue with my parents, but he won’t. He never wants them to feel bad. He is more thoughtful that way. He thinks and overthinks. Personality-wise, I am more like my dad, while Ahan is a lot like my mom. In our family, we all balance each other out,” she said.
The Hero actress further talked about her father’s prolonged existence as an actor in the industry. According to her, it is the goodwill that has helped him reach a point. “Everywhere I go, people talk about my parents’ goodwill. Any set that I go to, people talk about much they like my dad, and when you hear people say such lovely things about him, you realize how hard is it to fill in his shoes. He is immensely love and respected in the industry,” she was quoted as saying.
