Suniel Shetty's daughter Athiya Shetty is yet to deliver a stellar hit in Bollywood. She had made her debut with Hero also starring Sooraj Pancholi and went on to feature in films such as Mubarakan (2017) and Motichoor Chaknachoor that released last year. Looking at her choices of films, it is pretty evident that Athiya has been trying hard to make a mark in the industry. However, the controversy that happened between director Debamitra Biswal and producer Woodpecker Movies on the sets of Motichoor Chaknachoor has scarred Athiya and now she is having a hard time putting her faith in her father's choices of work.

Addressing the controversy and Athiya felt after his name was dragged in the case, Suniel told TOI, "I am her sounding board, I am her bounce board and boxing bag also, she punches me the most. She is very clear about what she does not want to do."

He continued, "At times that gets difficult and there are so many films that come her way and now Motichoor Chaknachoor has scarred her so much, tremendous appreciation as an actor but scarred her from the point of view. With no fault of hers, she was dragged into something that she was not even responsible for. She is so scared now that anything which comes from me she wants to think about it 25 times. She doesn’t have that kind of faith. She says they are your friends and this happens."

Suniel further added, "But Athiya is very comfortable in her own skin. I think that is where we all come from whether it is Mana (Shetty), or whether it is me or whether it is Athiya or Ahan (Shetty), we are happy, we are content. I don’t regret anything."
