‘Dhajjiyan uda dunga': Suniel Shetty threatens to expose Bollywood folks running negative campaigns against son Ahan
Actor Suniel Shetty voiced his anger at those who've allegedly spread negativity about his son, Ahan, in the press. He said that he will expose each and every person responsible for these negative campaigns, and threatened to hold a press conference where he will reveal their names publicly. He said that Ahan has been accused of having a large entourage by individuals who are upset that he chose to do Border 2 instead of their film. He also said that Ahan was replaced in projects because of these negative reports. Ahan is working on Border 2, a sequel to the iconic original war movie, in which Suniel played a memorable role.
In an interview with Zoom Entertainment, he said that he has advised Ahan to treat Border 2 like his final film. He said that the movie will probably be rewatched for years and years on important occasions such as Independence Day and Republic Day, and that it's important for Ahan to put his best foot forward. Suniel also said that Ahan had numerous offers on the table, but chose to do Border 2 because of his love for the nation and the family's connection to the series.

He said, 'I told him that this movie will keep him alive (in the minds of the audience) for decades to come, like the first Border has kept me alive. Ahan let go of a lot of opportunities because of this film; he missed out on a lot because of the ego of others. He was thrown out of those films, and he was blamed for it in the press. They said that he has a 10-person entourage; people paid lots of money to get negative articles written about him. Do you think I don't have connections? Do you think I can't do the same thing?'
He continued, 'I still pay for my own food. I spend my own money to this day, not the producer's. And that's how Ahan has been raised. I've never spoken about this, but I'll say this now. All this negativity was orchestrated because Ahan wanted to do Border 2, and people wanted their films to take off and not Border 2. If this continues, I will hold a press conference and expose each and every person's name. Jiski dhajjiyan udani hain, uda dunga. That child's obsession is Border.'
Ahan made his acting debut with the film Tadap, which was released in 2021. The film was directed by Milan Luthria, and made over Rs 30 crore at the box office. Border 2 is his second movie, and it will release in 2026, five years after Tadap. Border 2 is headlined by Sunnny Deol, and also stars Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and others. Suniel Shetty will be seen in the film Kesari Veer on Friday.

"Don't Step Out After 9 PM. It's West Indies": Rohit Sharma Reveals Cheteshwar Pujara Didn't Listen To Him, Got Mugged
Rohit Sharma and Cheteshwar Pujara go back a long ay. Not only did they play for the senior Indian cricket team together for a considerable amount of time, they were part of the same U-19 team too. Recently, during the book launch of 'The Diary of a Cricketer's Wife' by Pujara's wife, Pooja, the two shared a hilarious anecdote. "I'm sure it's not written in the book. Is there anything regarding that West Indies tour of India A 2012. What happened?" Rohit asked Pujara. Then Pujara divulged in details about the incident. "I haven't told. I mean, she is aware but she doesn't know the details. I am a vegetarian. So we were looking for a vegetarian meal at night. It was in TNT (Trinidad and Tobago) where we went out at 11 in the evening. We didn't find the meal but when we were walking back, I was mugged. I can't tell you in detail about it but that's the story he is referring to." Rohit then added: "Moral of the story is that he can be stubborn. We told him. We warned him not to go out in the night. Don't step out after 9 PM. This is the West Indies." Rohit Sharma and Cheteshwar Pujara share shocking incident about not going out after 9 pm in West Indies. — (@rushiii_12) June 7, 2025 Rohit credited Pujara for playing more than 100 Tests after suffering ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) injuries to both his knees right at the start of his career. '(It was) such a big injury (and) such a bad injury. Both his ACL were gone. For any cricketer, leave alone if you are not an athlete or not playing any sport, for a sportsman it's very, very tough if you lose both your ACL,' he said. 'We used to tease him about his running technique and all that but he managed to play more than 100 Test matches for India after that, a lot of credit goes to him for how he managed it. Great amount of dedication and passion he had to play the sport,' Rohit said. Pujara rated the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at home against Australia in 2016-17 as the toughest series he was involved in his career. 'I can mention one incident, in 2017, when India was bowled out for 200 odd runs against Australia, that was one of the toughest Test series I've been part of,' Pujara said. 'This was the second Test match at Bangalore, and the team didn't do well in the first innings, and we were again in a spot of bother in the second innings, but I spoke to Anil (Kumble) bhai about how to tackle Nathan Lyon, and he came up with a technical suggestion.'
