Updated: Jul 12, 2021 - 3:40 PM IST Ever since reports of Suniel Shettys residence being sealed after Covid cases, came out this morning Suniel has been flooded with anxious messages and calls. When I caught up with him he exclaimed, What has the media made it out to be? We are not even home. My children Athiya and Ahan are in London. My wife and I not at home either. The reports have gone berserk. Only one home in one of the wings in our residential colony has reported a Covid case. Such a big issue being made of it, I dont understand.Suniels son Ahan is getting ready for his Bollywood debut in 2022 with producer Sajid Nadiadwalas Tadap. Ahan is said to have the action genes of his father, plus the impressive acting chops which will make him the most complete action hero in recent times.Suniels daughter Athiya is rumoured to be dating cricketer K L Rahul. When last year a cocky journalist made bold to ask Suniel about it Suniel tossed back a classic rejoinder: I am not having the relationship. You will have to ask Athiya.You come and tell me if it is true, then we will talk about it. You dont know, how can you ask me then.How dignified is that.

Vikrant is a perfect fit for this role and I'm so glad to have him on board.Excited about being a part of the project, Vikrant says, When I saw Forensic, I was immediately hooked onto it. It is an intelligent film that keeps you on tenterhooks. At the same time, it is an out-and-out entertainer. I am really looking forward to collaborating with Mini Films and I am glad to be leading the Hindi remake.
