Bollywood actor Sunil Shetty recently attended ABP News’ summit ‘Ideas of India 2026’. During this, the actor discussed about his career, family, films, struggle etc. During this time, the actor especially talked about the people of Bollywood, not just people but good people. Let us know what he has to say?
Are there good people in Bollywood?
When we talked to Bollywood actor Sunil Shetty about the people of Bollywood, he replied, ‘I think that because an actor, be it a politician, a singer, a sportsman, an entertainer, he is always in front of the public, there are a lot of comments on him, negative and positive, of all kinds. This is the world and there are good people in it. How you bring out that goodness is important. If your roots are strong then gratitude and sympathy automatically come within you. I don’t think there are no good people in Bollywood, there is a narrative set in the case of Bollywood like if there are drugs then it is Bollywood, if there is Me Too then it is Bollywood, but it is not like that.
What did Sunil say on paparazzi and media?
Further, while talking about media-TRP and paparazzi culture, Sunil said, ‘It is not just about Bollywood, if you see it in life also, the same thing happens. Because abuse is a view. You get TRP when you abuse. It is not a matter of whether this news is true or not, it is a matter of the fact that I have posted this news first. It is the job of the media to verify the news. This is the difference between journalism and paparazzi and we want journalism to come back, authentic, beautiful. But for people, media has become only views. People now think whether I should be good or bad so that I can get views.
Sunil Shetty does not watch son-in-law’s cricket
During this, Sunil Shetty also told that he does not watch his son-in-law’s matches. He said, ‘I don’t watch the match at all, because I am an avid cricket fan, so I don’t watch it at all, I listen but don’t even listen to the commentary, but when my wife watches, she screams from within, I listen to her words and understand by seeing her expression. But I definitely watch the highlights, because by then everything becomes easy, and I remain very nervous because it is a child, we want him to do well, especially because of the comments, because there are a lot of comments, the comments do not have that much effect on me, but if anything happens to the children, it affects the parents a lot. That’s why I don’t watch the match.
