‘Dhajjiyan uda dunga’: Suniel Shetty warns those conspiring against son Ahan Shetty, removing him from movies

Suniel Shetty revealed that he advised his son Ahan Shetty to give his all for JP Dutta's Border 2 as it will keep him alive in the industry.

JP Dutta’s Border sequel, starring Sunny Deol, is currently in the making. While Suniel Shetty is not part of the project, his son Ahan Shetty is. In an interview with Times Now, Suniel revealed that Ahan was removed from other films for choosing to be part of Border 2, and issued a warning to those conspiring against him to stop their tactics.

Suniel Shetty revealed that son Ahan was removed from films because he wanted to do Border 2.

Suniel Shetty says Ahan Shetty was dropped from films and blamed for choosing Border 2

Suniel shared that he advised Ahan to give Border 2 his full commitment—even if it meant never doing another film again. He said, “Because this is the film that will keep you alive, it will keep your father alive for decades to come. On 26 January and 15 August, we will always be seen. Ahan let go of many things for this film. A lot of opportunities slipped out of his hands due to egos. He was removed from films and then blamed. Rumours were spread that he comes with expensive bodyguards, and paid articles were published.”

Suniel added that many negative stories were fabricated about Ahan because he wanted to do Border 2. “I’ve never spoken about this before—this is the first time. Stories were made up because Ahan wanted to do Border, while others wanted their own films to be made. Everything was manipulated. If this escalates further, I will hold a press conference and expose everyone. Jinki dhajjiyan udani hai, uda dunga (I will tear down whoever needs to be exposed),” he warned.
