Mumbai: Livid with the ‘conspiracy’ against his son Ahan, actor Suniel Shetty spoke out against the lobbying culture in Bollywood and warned conspirators of dire consequences.
In an interview with Times Now, Suniel divulged that Ahan was removed from other films after he signed ‘Border 2.’ The advised his son to give his best to ‘Border 2’ and not care about the plotters.
“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 said.
“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.
Directed by Anurag Singh, ‘Border 2’ is the sequel to JP Dutta’s 1997 blockbuster ‘Border’, which featured Suniel Shetty.
Produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, JP Dutta and Nidhi Dutta, ‘Border 2’ features Sunny Deol, Ahan Shetty, Varun Dhawan and Diljit Dosanjh in lead roles.
The film is slated to hit theatres on January 23, 2026.
