Shilpa Shetty’s husband, businessman Raj Kundra took to X on October 19 to announce his separation. Without mentioning Shilpa, he wrote, ‘We have separated and kindly request you to give us time during this difficult period.’
His cryptic post left many on the internet wondering if he and Shilpa were getting a divorce. Now, Raj has shared another tweet clarifying that he has bid farewell to masks.
He wrote, ‘It’s time to separate now! Thank you for keeping me protected over the last two years. Onto the next phase of my journey #UT69’.
Raj Kundra and Shilpa Shetty tied the knot in 2009. They have two kids together–Viaan and Samisha.
During the trailer launch of his biopic ‘UT 69’, Raj Kundra broke down as he spoke about his time in jail in a porn scandal.
‘Family pe mat jao yaar, kya bigaada hai maine?’ he said as he cried.
At the event, Raj also called himself the solo hero of his film and even recreated Shah Rukh Khan’s iconic pose.
He was the prime accused in the porn case in 2021 and spent time in jail before he was released on bail. Raj has been hiding his face behind a mask ever since he was released on bail.
In another part of the press conference, Raj said, ‘I was wearing a mask only out of pain. The media trial was very painful. In fact, it was more painful than my legal trial. I don’t blame the media because they were doing their job but it was so painful that I had to wear a mask and cover up. I didn’t want to be seen or spotted or get my pictures clicked. I already have a star at home but now my mask has also become a star. So, I decided to make a film and took a vow to not take it off before my film comes out.’
