A significant day in the Shetty family calendar marked the occasion where two prominent Bollywood personalities, actor Suniel Shetty and his daughter Athiya Shetty, expressed their warmth and fondness for Ahan Shetty, as he celebrated his birthday. Emerged in the industry with his role in ‘Tadap’, Ahan Shetty has earned not only a place in the cinematic world but also a substantial following that eagerly celebrated with him.
The heartening event was encapsulated online with the sharing of touching messages and pictures on social media platforms. A post that captured substantial attention featured Ahan Shetty himself, pictured at a café, shared by none other than the actor’s father, Suniel Shetty. The caption accompanying the stunning photo read, “A lot of friends see my reflection in you Ahan, but what I see in you son is the man I always wanted to become … Happy birthday babu … love you with all my heart !!”. This heartfelt note resonated with fans and celebrities alike, prompting a wave of well-wishes, including comments from actors Sanjay Kapoor, Riteish Deshmukh, Nawab Shah, and Bhakhtyaar, who all extended their celebratory messages.
Athiya Shetty, Ahan’s elder sister, wasn’t far behind in sharing the love. She scoured her photo archives to post nostalgic throwback images, offering a glimpse into the siblings’ close-knit relationship. The images showcased tender moments, such as Ahan accompanying Athiya, hand in hand, on her wedding day and a snapshot from their childhood days where a young Athiya cradled an infant Ahan. Alongside these memories, Athiya penned, “Happy birthday to the best brother, best friend and best human. You deserve every bit of happiness and unlimited laddoos. Love you, fool”.
Adding to the family affair, cricketer KL Rahul, Ahan’s brother-in-law, joined in with his own digital tribute on Instagram stories. Rahul shared a personal photo with Ahan and captioned it, “Happy birthday @ahan.shetty, so happy to have a brother like you in my life. Always got your back.”
In a flashback to his career inception, Ahan Shetty’s debut highlighted his entry into the arts as he joined the film industry with ‘Tadap’ in 2019, starring alongside Tara Sutaria. Although he hasn’t yet announced his follow-up project, anticipation buzzes around his potential future roles. Comparatively, his sister Athiya made waves with her first onscreen appearance in the 2015 film ‘Hero’, building upon her talent with roles in ‘Mubarakan’ and ‘Motichoor Chaknachoor’.
Apart from professional prospects, Ahan Shetty recently made headlines for personal reasons as well, notably due to his split with long-time girlfriend Tania Shroff. The couple, who charmed onlookers with their romance that blossomed from childhood friendship, decided to part ways after a commendable eleven-year journey. While neither party has publicly addressed the breakup, sources close to them indicated an end to their relationship. Ahan and Tania, once schoolmates and later sweethearts, have now embarked on separate paths, with the source revealing to Times Of India, “It’s the end of an eleven-year-old relationship. They broke up last month or so. They are currently single and trying to move on.”
Ahan Shetty’s birthday serves not just as a celebration of his personal milestone but also a recap of his evolving journey in life and cinema. With a promising start in the industry and a support system that echoes adoration and encouragement, Ahan is poised for potentially greater achievements in the days ahead. The young actor, enveloped in familial support and well-wishers’ cheer, embraces another year that, regardless of its personal highs and lows, solidifies his presence in the hearts of those who hold him dear.
