Suniel Shetty’s Father Veerappa Passes Away In Breach Candy Hospital
Suniel Shetty's father Veerappa Shetty passed away this morning at 1:30 am. He was admitted at Breach Candy Hospital as he was not keeping well since a long time.
 
According to the sources, the funeral will take place tomorrow in Worli as the members of the actor’s family are coming from USA. While Suniel’s daughter, Athiya Shetty is currently in London as she is shooting there for her forthcoming film Mubarakaan.
 
Back in 2013, when Suniel Shetty was launching his new interior decoration showroom in Worli, he shared a sweet incident about his father with the media. Suniel had a special connection with the building in which the store was unveiled He had said, “This is where my father, Veerappa Shetty, used to work. He used to clean plates here since he worked as a waiting boy at a restaurant. My father is my real hero. He started working at the age of nine. He used to sleep on flattened mustard sacks and used a rolled-up gunny bag as a pillow.”

In 2015, Suniel didn't celebrate daughter Athiya's debut in Bollywood. He told a section of media, "We won’t be having a big bash this year because of dad’s health, but we may go somewhere on a brief holiday closer to home. We need to be around dad all the time.”

Our condolences are with the family.
