The dazzling world of Bollywood has long been a magnet for aspiring stars, offering glamour, fame, and fortune. However, not everyone chooses to stay in the spotlight forever. Athiya Shetty, who made a promising debut in a Salman Khan production, chose to walk away from the film industry after just four films. Embracing motherhood and family life, she decided to prioritize love over limelight — a decision that surprised many of her fans.
Born on November 5, 1992, Athiya is the daughter of Bollywood veteran Suniel Shetty and philanthropist Mana Shetty. Inspired by her father, she pursued a career in acting and trained at the prestigious New York Film Academy. Her Bollywood journey, although brief, showcased her talent and potential in front of the camera.

Before stepping into the film world, Athiya completed her early education at the Cathedral and John Connon School and later attended the American School of Bombay. After a few years in the film industry, she chose a different path — one centered around a quieter life with her husband, Indian cricketer KL Rahul. Today, Athiya finds happiness away from the spotlight, embracing motherhood and the simplicity of family life.
