Mumbai, Jan 20 (NationPress) Bollywood actor Suniel Shetty, who is currently the host and mentor of the streaming reality business show ‘Bharat Ke Super Founders’, revealed how he initiated the health and wellness industry through his role in the film ‘Dhadkan’.
During a conversation with IANS while promoting ‘Bharat Ke Super Founders’, he humorously claimed to be the pioneer of the health and wellness industry, stating that his character Dev built a business worth INR 500 crores in just one year by simply walking.
When questioned about his business strategy in the film and how he amassed such a fortune, he responded, “By walking. Fitness is the biggest business. I recognized this early on, which is why today I have such a successful enterprise. I walked, got tired, stumbled, stood up, and continued walking. The real knowledge was all about mindset, mental strength, and fitness.”
He elaborated, “At the time when I sold the business, I faced many tax-related issues. I didn’t disclose the full details then, but now everybody is aware. Because INR 500 crores is nothing now; it was significant back then. That's why I've decided to speak about it now.”
