Shilpa Shetty Kundra is no stranger to the hospitality sector having been a co- owner of a popular nightspot in Mumbai until not too long ago. Now, the actor has plunged headlong into the food and beverage business. She has invested in Chronicle, the popular beach club in Goa. Keeping up with Shetty’s love for fitness, it’s not surprising that she has expanded the menu to include healthy offerings too.
While Chronicle has largely been a popular hotspot since its inception in 2013, Shilpa says they have reimagined it as an all- day eatery. “It was more of a night club earlier. But now, we have transitioned it into a day club that opens its doors at 9 am. We are also focusing on the food offerings,” said Mrs. Kundra.The restaurant’s idyllic location on the beach makes it the perfect setting for yoga sessions, says Shilpa.Shilpa Shetty was born in a tuluva Bunt family, in Mangalore, Karnataka. Her father Surendra and her mother, Sunanda are both manufacturers of tamper-proof water caps in the pharmaceutical industry. “We have already successfully launched yoga mornings. It comprises people practicing yoga under the guidance of the available trainers, followed by healthy juices and nutritious breakfast,” revealed the actress.
However, Shilpa is quick to add that the club will also offer the best from the world of music. “We have an exciting line- up of the world’s best DJs coming to perform here. I plan to expand the brand across the country,” she concluded.In addition to film acting, Shetty is a stage performer and has contributed as an author to two books: nutrition guides. She is a prominent celebrity endorser for various brands and products, and is vocal about social issues, such as feminism and animal rights. She has featured as a celebrity host for the 2008 reality show Bigg Boss 2 and has served as a talent judge for the reality shows Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, Nach Baliye and Super Dancer.
