Raj Kundra, the entrepreneur and husband of Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty, is making his foray into the Punjabi film industry with his upcoming project, Mehr. Recently, he shared an intriguing teaser for the film on social media, sparking excitement among his followers. The teaser reveals an emotional and family-oriented narrative, hinting at deep themes of relationships, love, and life. With a voiceover that suggests the movie will explore heartfelt connections, the teaser has already created a buzz, making fans eager for more.
On January 13, Raj took to Instagram to announce the film's teaser release, writing a heartfelt message to accompany it: “This Lohri, we are overjoyed to announce Mehr—a tale of relationships, love, and life, inspired by the blessings that surround us. As Mehr means blessings, we humbly seek your love and prayers for this special journey. May Wahe Guru’s Mehr be with us all as we bring this heartfelt story to life.” The post reflects his excitement for the film, and the use of the term Mehr—which translates to "blessings"—adds a deeply personal touch to the announcement.
Shilpa Shetty, ever supportive of her husband's ventures, gave him a loving shoutout on Instagram Stories. Sharing the teaser, she wrote, “Brrahhh! Rab di Meher. All the best, Cookie.” The endearing term “Cookie” is a testament to the couple's close and affectionate relationship. Shilpa has always been a pillar of support for Raj, and this gesture only reinforces her unwavering encouragement of his professional endeavors.
This isn’t the first time Shilpa has expressed her admiration for Raj. During his recent birthday celebrations, she shared a fun video showcasing his Bhangra skills at a gathering. Raj’s infectious energy had everyone in the room, including Shilpa, tapping their feet. In her post, she called him the “best Bhangra dancer,” showering him with praise and wishing him a lifetime filled with joy and happiness. She also expressed how blessed she and their children, Viaan and Samisha, feel to have him in their lives, ending the message with a sweet note for her "Cookie."
Raj Kundra’s entry into the Punjabi film industry follows his acting debut in UT 69, a biographical film based on his life. The film, which hit theaters on November 3, 2023, explores his time as an undertrial at Mumbai’s Arthur Road prison during the legal troubles he faced. As he embarks on this new journey with Mehr, it’s clear that Raj is keen on embracing new challenges, both personally and professionally.
