Shilpa Shetty's husband and renowned businessman Raj Kundra is all set to make his acting debut. He will be seen in a film titled 'UT69' which is based on his real experiences while in jail. Raj Kundra was arrested in a pornography related case in July 2021 and lodged in Arthur Road jail for two months before he was granted bail in September 2021. Raj, who otherwise lives a luxurious life, faced harrowing experiences while in jail.
Raj Kundra was stripped naked in jail:
In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Raj opened up about how he was stripped in front of everyone. He emotionally told the media portal, “It is humiliating because wo nanga hi kar dete hain apko (They turn you naked). Checking if you are carrying any narcotics in your back side, they will strip you down in front of everyone so you feel like you have lost all your dignity when that happens.”

Raj further told, “You feel like you have gone through so much already ab yahan pe bhi nanga kar rahe hain. Media to nanga kar hi rahi thi mujhe, upar se ye bhi ho gaya so I felt very disheartened and hurt (You feel like you have gone through so much already and now, here also they are stripping you. Media was already stripping me and now this happened, so I felt very disheartened and hurt).”
Raj hid himself behind the mask for two years after being released from jail. However, after gathering courage, he was able to put down his mask at the trailer launch of 'UT69'.
