'T​his rise will demand a lot of courage': Shilpa Shetty pens note, turns to Confucius after Raj Kundra returns home from jail

Actress Shilpa Shetty Kundra took to social media to share a quote by Chinese philosopher Confucius, as her husband Raj Kundra returned home after 2 months in Mumbai's Arthur Road Jail. The 46-year-old businessman was granted bail by a court on Monday, in an ongoing pornography case against him.

The 'Hungama 2' actress posted the quote along with a picture of her in meditation, as part of her on-again, off-again #ShilpaKaMantra series.


The quote read: "Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall".

The 46-year-old actress said that there will always be moments that push you to the ground, but it is in times like that one needs to make themselves strong enough to rise again.

"There are always going to be moments that push you to the ground. In times like these, I truly believe that if you fall seven times, make yourself strong enough to be able to stand back up eight times."

She added that "this rise will demand a lot of courage, grit, will-power, and strength during some of your most difficult moments."

Continuing, "But, these qualities will only make you more resilient and robust in this journey called life. Every time that you rise back up, you will come back with renewed determination and motivation to make even the impossible possible."

Kundra was granted bail by Chief Metropolitan Magistrate SB Bhajipale on Monday on furnishing a bond of Rs 50,000. His associate and co-accused Ryan Thorpe, who was arrested along with him on July 19, was also granted bail by the court in the case.
