Shetty remarked on the misconception of his business acumen, explaining that he lives within his means. He mentioned that he doesn’t indulge in luxuries such as driving multiple cars, preferring to enjoy one car for a couple of years. He also emphasized his desire for quality over quantity, stating that he would choose a single, ideal house when he can afford it, as the home should be a welcoming place.
He shared that people often mention visiting his farmhouse, which he built 16 years ago. At the time, its financial value was minimal, but his goal was to create a space where he could spend weekends with his children, Athiya and Ahan, engaging in farming and planting trees together.
Shetty revealed that he has no intention of selling either the farmhouse or his current residence in Mumbai. He explained that although these properties might have monetary value to others, they are priceless to him personally. He expressed his desire to pass on a sense of happiness to his children and continue doing meaningful work for others.
On the professional front, Shetty has two upcoming films: “Welcome to the Jungle 3,” headlined by Akshay Kumar, and “Hera Pheri 3,” which is currently facing legal issues and is expected to start production later.
