Do you know he regularly nurtures and maintains his home garden, enjoying fresh produce from nature? Last year, the Hera Pheri film star shared a video on Instagram where he was seen plucking ripe lemons from his garden. He admired the homegrown goodness with pride before carefully cutting the citrus fruits. Next, he collected them in a tray. The caption said, "Yellow lemons: the colour of sunshine, happiness, health and pure energy." Read all about it here. Previously, Suniel Shetty opened up about his diet in a conversation with Chanda Kochhar on his podcast Journey Unscripted. The actor revealed, "I quantify my food and make sure there are things I don't eat. Anything white for me is taboo, whether it's milk because I'm lactose intolerant or whether it's white rice or ice cream... I pack my dinner off by 7 in the evening." Once again, a very happy birthday to the fit and fabulous Suniel Shetty.
