KING OF HEARTS - SUNIL SHETTY I have met numerous stars and famous people in my time but never was there
more pleasure in meeting Sunil Shetty than anyone else, even meeting
Michael Douglas or Rod Stewart was less eventful and more of an effort
than meeting Sunil Shetty. It was simply a pleasure to be in his company.
The Bollywood mega star who is known as the gentle artist and a very
stable personality and a very successful enterpruner, He is at the Helm of
many a business ventures so he is not in the movies for the money but
thinks that let money be a by-product and he utilises it extremely
shrewdly.
His first love was business but after achieving success he had to seek new
challenges, New heights to conquer and nothing is more difficult to
achieve than success in the movies.
Sunil is very unlike the bollywood run of the mill stars, He is a real
human being and a man with a big heart. Money is never his object more of
the Art of performing.
Sunil Shetty has real class, which either you have it or you don’t and he
certainly does have it, I would put him in the class of Dilip Kumar and
Raj Kumar the real stars who were born with a class. To people like them
acting is their baandi and not the other way round.
Watching Sunil Shetty acting is a real class act he is so natural and cool
and he does not go by the rule book hence some of the producers are not
very happy with him, but the funny part is that he does not want to give
up his style and at the same time he cares for the people who think he is
breaking the rules they do call him a loveable rouge………
Sunil Shetty a real family man he loves his children his daughter Athiya
and son Ahaan and his beautiful wife Mana who is not only prettier than
most bollywood ladies in looks but also possess a very friendly
disposition and is very much liked and respected in the Bombay’s elite
circles.
Sunil Shetty and Mana Shetty compliment each other which makes their
presence’s even more desirable than most Stars.
When I met Sunil recently in London I was not sure what to expect from him
even though I knew he was a friendly person but wow is he friendly? Yes
probably the friendliest person you will ever meet.
Once you had the pleasure of meeting him you would think as though he has
known you all YOUR life and he is very down to earth which in my opinion
is the quality of a real star like Dilip Kumar.
My first question to Sunil was how do you manage to be so friendly while
all the pressures of being a star mount up.
His Reply was that I never forget that everyone is a human being and to
treat them, as such is what God has intended us to do.
Shahid….What do you say to critics who brand you as too friendly with your
Fans.
Sunil….My fan are everything I have I want to be friendly with them and
that’s what I like and no critic will make me unfriendly towards my stars.
Shahid….There have lately been rumours that you wanted to quit on movies
and concentrate on your business?
Sunil….Business is a form to occupy my mind and provide the bread and
butter for the family but movies is my passion and I have no intentions to
give up just yet.
Shahid....It’s known that you have accumulated a great mass of wealth?
Sunil….No no that’s not true I am involved with a large number of business
ventures and I am very comfortable but no masses of money any where, it
has never been my desire to collect large amounts of money its just a by
product of hard work and honesty in business dealings.
Shahid….You are known in the industry as King of Hearts what do you say
about that.
Sunil .…It’s a great feeling to have a place in peoples Heart there is
nothing more rewarding in life than love and appriciation, I do things
from my heart hence people pick up on that, I do not get involved with the
"moviewala politics"that keeps me clean and happy with a free mind.
Shahid….It's been said that you support lots of charities in INDIA and you
do it discreetly. Is it true that you donate sizeable chunks of you money
to orphanges?
Sunil….Everyone does their part in life money earned is left here when you
depart, I would like to keep that part discreet and private.
Shahid….You have two great children who are highlight of your day do you
plan to expand on that...
Sunil….No comments
Shahid....There is great majority of Pakistan movie goers who love your
performance and most of them are unable to come and see you in Bombay.Do
you have any plans to Visit Pakistan.
Sunil….I know admirers of my work in Pakistan amount to a large number and
I get regular fan mail from Pakistan and I would love to come and visit
Pakistan. As soon as its practicable I would be visiting Pakistan and will
be making many many appearances in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad. I think
that Pakistanis and Indians should work together and create a family
atmosphere in the sub-continent after all we are all the same family. I
have a great love for Lahore and have heard a great deal about the quality
of food there, So don’t be surprised to see me in one of the Lahori
restaurants soon.
My Wife is a great admirer of Pakistani fashion and I am sure when we go
to Pakistan we will be spending a great deal of time in the Shalwar kameez
Shops. I am very impressed that Asian people in the west are so friendly
with each other and they all come together to our shows I feel very proud
to be amongst such lovely people.
Shahid….Do you have a message for the "SAHER" readers around the world?
Sunil....Yes, I Have Recently seen "Saher" on the Internet and its very
impressive and standards are very high obviously that reflects that the
readers of Saher are of very high Calibre. So please tell me that I admire
you and love you and please pass my apriciation to them for supporting me
through thick and thin. And I promise to Visit Pakistan as soon as
possible and looking forward to meeting my Pakistani friends soonest.
Well at this stage Sunil was invited back to the Studios where he is doing
further interviews for the Fans in England.
I was standing there for few minutes thinking is this guy for real can big
movie stars be so nice and friendly and approachable. Well the truth is
yes they are only Humans too to same fame goes straight to their heads and
for others it’s a love affair with their ADMIRERS.
I can Assure you that you can count me in as one of his big admirers his
style his work his performance his manners, everything he does reflects
his greatness and his class he is a true artist and I think he is real
Human Being and he never forgets that.
And I think at the end of the day that’s what’s its really all about being
yourself.
