Shilpa Shetty and her family appear to be going through a difficult time. The Bollywood actress has announced that she is closing one of her famous restaurants in Bandra, Mumbai, called Bastian. This comes weeks after she and her billionaire husband, Raj Kundra, were charged with stealing over Rs 60 crore in a loan-cum-investment arrangement between 2015 and 2023. The actress wrote a heartfelt statement announcing that Thursday would be the restaurant's last day of operation, but she did not explain why it was closing.

Shilpa Shetty wrote, "This Thursday marks the end of an era as we bid farewell to one of Mumbai’s most iconic destinations – BASTIAN BANDRA. A venue that gave us countless memories, unforgettable nights, and moments that shaped the city’s nightlife now takes its final bow."

Shilpa Shetty disclosed that they are hosting a special evening for a final adieu to Bastian Bandra. "To honour this legendary space, we’re curating a very special evening for our closest patrons – a night filled with nostalgia, energy, and magic, celebrating everything Bastian has stood for one last time. While we say goodbye to BASTIAN BANDRA, our Thursday night ritual Arcane Affair will continue next week at BASTIAN AT THE TOP, carrying forward the legacy in a brand-new chapter with brand new experiences," she added.
