Raj Kundra Recalls Overcrowded Jail Stay and Support from Shilpa Shetty
Raj Kundra, husband of actress Shilpa Shetty, recounted his 63-day imprisonment in Mumbai's Arthur Road Jail in 2021 related to a pornography case. He described overcrowded conditions with up to 250 inmates in small rooms and poor-quality food. Kundra learned of his arrest while at the police station and faced rumors of his wife leaving him, which deeply affected him. Shilpa Shetty supported him by securing legal help and managing their businesses during the crisis, ultimately leading Kundra to pursue acting after his release.
