Athiya’s brother Ahan Shetty too shared a picture with KL Rahul as he wished him. He shared the picture on his Instagram story and wrote, “Happy birthday brother.” Have a look:

Meanwhile, Suniel recently spoke to The Times of India and praised KL Rahul. He said that he was blessed to have a son-in-law like him. The Hera Pheri actor said, “I am anxious because that’s my child (KL Rahul) playing. I would wish well for him but through his eyes and seeing him, I have started empathising and sympathising, appreciating every cricketer there is here. When your child goes through a low, it shakes you more probably than it shakes the child because he is the master of that form but you don’t know. You are seeing him as a father.”

He added, “But then when he rises like a phoenix you feel this is something to be inspired from and this is what the team’s tough boys are. I am a proud father. Blessed is Athiya and blessed is Ahaan because he gets to learn about from him. He is calm, composed, very respectful. I don’t think I could have asked for a better son.”
