Shilpa Shetty’s Mumbai restaurant Bastian Bandra to shut down, actress pens emotional farewell note

Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty and her husband Raj Kundra are facing controversy after being accused of defrauding over ₹60 crore in a loan-cum-investment deal between 2015 and 2023. Amid the ongoing legal troubles, Shilpa took to social media to announce the closure of her Mumbai restaurant, Bastian Bandra. Although she did not disclose the reason for shutting down the outlet, she shared an emotional note revealing that Thursday would mark its final day of operations.

Shilpa wrote, "This Thursday marks the end of an era as we bid farewell to one of Mumbai's most iconic destinations - BASTIAN BANDRA. A venue that gave us countless memories, unforgettable nights, and moments that shaped the city's nightlife now takes its final bow."

She added, "To honour this legendary space, we're curating a very special evening for our closest patrons - a night filled with nostalgia, energy, and magic, celebrating everything Bastian has stood for one last time. While we say goodbye to BASTIAN BANDRA, our Thursday night ritual Arcane Affair will continue next week at BASTIAN AT THE TOP, carrying forward the legacy in a brand-new chapter with brand new experiences."
