Businessman Raj Kundra opened up about his wife, Shilpa Shetty's reaction to his debut film, UT69. Last week, the trailer of UT69 was launched at a press conference. After the press conference, Raj shared his wife, Shilpa's reaction when he first expressed his desire to make a film on himself. As a report of News18, Raj said, "She (Shilpa) was a few feet away from me when I decided to tell her that I am making a film. I didn’t want to go too close to her (laughs)." 

Raj further revealed that Shilpa’s initial reaction to his biopic wasn’t pleasant. Raj said, "I told her that I had a script and was waiting for her answer. When I turned away from her, a flying chappal came at my face. I think she thought that the idea was a little dicey at first. Maybe she thought that the film wouldn’t get made." Then Raj told director Shahnawaz Ali, to explain the script to her. "He gave her a very small narration. She thought about it and realised that it wasn’t about the case of against the system in any way. She felt it was a very human story,” Raj added.
