Entering the film industry, doing big commercials, and living a glamorous life full of treasure and leisure is a dream for many, but not all can succeed and enjoy the showbiz life. Some actors who step away from the limelight due to failure in making a successful career, but some personalities willingly quit acting.

Well, we are talking about Athiya Shetty! Born to popular Bollywood actor Suniel Shetty and Mana Shetty on November 5, 1992, Athiya Shetty is among the popular Starkids who tried to follow in their parents' footsteps. Before entering the Bollywood film industry, Athiya Shetty completed her schooling at Cathedral and John Connon School and later shifted to the American School of Bombay. She studied acting at the New York Film Academy before starting her Bollywood career. Athiya debuted in Bollywood with Hero (2016), starring opposite Sooraj Pancholi and produced by none other than Salman Khan. The movie was a remake of the 1983 blockbuster romantic action drama of the same name starring Jackie Shroff. Helmed by Nikkhil Advani, the Athiya Shetty starrer couldn't impress the audience much and failed to gain traction at the box office. Post the debacle of her debut film, Athiya Shetty returned to the big screens with Mubarakaan, directed by Anees Bazmee.
