Mumbai, Jan 20 Bollywood actor Suniel Shetty, who serves as the host and mentor on the streaming reality business show ‘Bharat Ke Super Founders’, has shared how he sowed the seeds of the health and wellness industry in his film ‘Dhadkan’.

The actor spoke with IANS during the promotions of ‘Bharat Ke Super Founders’, and said in jest that he was the first mover in the health and wellness industry as his character of Dev in the film made an empire of INR 500 in a year simply by walking on foot.

When asked what was his business in the film, and how he managed to build up the empire in a year, he told IANS, “

He further mentioned, “So, somewhere, somewhere. When I sold it, what was there? At that time, there were a lot of problems with income tax. So, I didn't disclose it. Now everyone knows. Because now INR 500 crores is nothing. It was a lot then. That's why I decided I will talk about it now”.
