As India clinched the Champions Trophy in a thrilling match against New Zealand, Bollywood celebrities joined a host of fans in celebrating their victory. While several stars made it to the stadium, some, including Athiya Shetty, could not be present as she is heavily pregnant with her first child.
However, the actress didn't miss out on a chance to catch the action at home. She celebrated Team India's victory by sharing a first look at her baby bump as she stood close to the television set. Joining her cheer squad, was dad Suniel Shetty.
The actor took to his handle to share a heartfelt post for his son-in-law, cricketer KL Rahul. Applauding India’s victory and Rahul’s contribution to the win, he shared a cool click of Rahul raising his bat in victory and wrote, "INDIA’S WISH !!!! Rahul’s COMMAND …….”
The proud father-in-law moment caught fans’ attention, with many calling it the ultimate "damaad flex." With his post soon going viral, with fans appreciating his unwavering support, one user commented, "Sasur ho to aisa! Itna support to mera apna baap naa kare" (This is how a father-in-law should be! Even my own father doesn’t support me this much).
Another wrote, "Shetty sir doing PR for his son-in-law." Others hailed it as a "proud father-in-law moment," while another joked, "Damaad flexing on top!"
KL Rahul played a pivotal role in India's triumph, remaining unbeaten at 34 and ensuring the trophy returned home.
On the work front, Suniel was last seen in Karan Johar's Nadaaniyan, starring Ibrahim Ali Khan and Khushi Kapoor. He also has several upcoming projects, including two with Akshay Kumar and Paresh Rawal, titled Welcome to the Jungle and Hera Pheri 3.
