On July 23, 2020, Shilpa Shetty took to her Instagram handle and shared an appreciation note for her ‘OG constants’, Sunanda Shetty and Shamita Shetty. Sharing stills from her childhood days and recent times, Shilpa wrote, “#AppreciationPost Same pose... just another day. There’s so much that we see changing every day. Professionally... personally... physically... emotionally...! But, even amid all these changes, we still crave for that one set of constant people in our lives who stand by us, encourage us, cheer the loudest, and make us feel special in times when we don’t value ourselves. Just want to say that I’m really grateful for my ‘OG constants’ @sunandashetty10 & @shamitashetty_official for being who you have been to me. Love you both!
Well, we all know that Shilpa shares immense love for her mother, Sunanda Shetty. Time and again, she has showered praises on her mother in numerous interviews and Instagram posts. However, not a lot of people are aware of the story that Sunanda Shetty had gone through a lot of tricky circumstances during the birth of her daughter, Shilpa Shetty Kundra. During one of the episodes of the dance reality show, Super Dancer, while watching a 9-year-old boy, Dev Varshney’s performance, Shilpa had revealed a shocking truth about her birth. Shilpa had said that when she was about to enter the world, doctors had said that she would not be able to see the light of the day. Further, sharing the details, Shilpa had also revealed that the doctors had informed her mother that even if the baby (Shilpa) was born, it would not be normal.

Here’s what Shilpa had remarked, “When my mom was pregnant with me, the doctors had said I will not survive since my mother was bleeding continuously for six months. They also said that the child will not be born normal. But the mother decided that she would go ahead with giving me birth.

She believed if I survive this, I will be a born survivor.”
