One can now say that Raj Kundra is now an actor, not just a businessman. His wife Shilpa Shetty has this opinion as she sees his film ‘UT 69’. Raj was arrested in 2021 on charges of creating pornographic content. He spent about two months in Jail and then was granted bail. Raj was booked under sections of the Indian Penal Code, the Indecent Representation of Women (Prevention) Act and the Information Technology Act.
He’s now made a film on his experiences in Jail which released on Friday, November 3.
Post watching the film, Shilpa shared a video of a scene and wrote an emotional note for him. She expressed, ‘My dearest Cookie, I know I say many things… but, this is something I want you to remember! YOU are special & brave, and I am soooo proud of you ♥️🧿🌈 Many people go through hardships… some become cynical, some bitter, & some even change. What is admirable is how YOU have taken it all in your stride and embraced life’s journey with positivity.’
She further spoke about the film and said, ‘#UT69 celebrates the human spirit and shows how one can turn adversities into strength. You’re a living example of that. We all have our journeys – and you have endured yours with faith and patience 😇 Last but not least, UT69 is entertaining despite dealing with a delicate subject and kudos to @shahnawazali1 for handling this incredible story with a cinematic lens that balances dark humour & gut-wrenching emotions. It’s not an easy task, but you pulled it off. Congratulations to the entire team (most are debutants 😅👏🏽)’
Shilpa also appreciated Raj’s acting skills in a fun way. ‘It’s a slice of your life, @onlyrajkundra, and you have put your life into it. Wishing you all only the very best. As an actor, you are a natural! Unbelievable, considering it’s your first film (I thought I was the only actor at home now I stand corrected)😅 Please watch this beautiful film, out in the theatres today… it’s ALL HEART!♥️’
Raj had earlier shared in an interview that Shilpa has been his constant support when he was in Jail and was even sending letters to him. He also had shared a video and clarified that ‘food porn is the only porn he’s been involved with.’
