On Tuesday night, a video surfaced online of Shilpa Shetty supposedly arguing with an international tourist at a restaurant in Croatia, where she had gone to celebrate her 50th birthday on June 8. Though Shilpa, her relatives, or her husband Raj Kundra cannot be seen in the video, we can hear a heated argument where she is likely saying, "Don't talk to us. We don't want to hear from you." Some users claim she also said, "You don't know who we are," while others say the last line wasn't recorded but added by the person who posted it.
Many assume the altercation started when a tourist asked Shilpa and her family to lower their voices. Raj Kundra has, however, offered a clarification to Hindustan Times that they had booked the hotel a year in advance, and the argument was a result of them raising the "deeply frustrating" concern of their table getting double booked by the same agent, and that someone had asked the family to be quiet.
“I’d like to clarify the situation regarding the video circulating online. I had booked this particular restaurant a year in advance to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Unfortunately, upon arrival, we were informed that our table had been given away to another group due to what they claimed was a 'double booking' error from the same agent," he told HT.
Elaborating further, Raj said, “As someone who has also run restaurants, I found the handling of the situation deeply frustrating, especially with my elderly parents, mother-in-law and 20 guests left waiting. What was meant to be a special evening turned unnecessarily stressful, and when we raised our concerns, we were abruptly told to stay quiet, which only added to our disappointment. After a year of planning, the lack of accountability or even basic courtesy from the restaurant management was extremely disheartening. I hope this puts the situation into perspective.”
