Don't love all public scrutiny: Athiya Shetty

Actor Athiya Shetty feels the constant spotlight on the professional and personal life of a celebrity is a part and parcel of showbiz but says sometimes it does bother her. Asked if she loves all the public scrutiny, Athiya said, "Well, some of it I don't love. But I am getting used to it."

"It is a part and parcel of the job. So I don't take negativity too seriously. I try and take it constructively," she added. The daughter of actor Suniel Shetty entered showbiz alongside actor Aditya Pancholi's son Sooraj with Hero in 2015. Since then she has been in the news for many reasons including link-up rumours. The actor will soon be seen in multi-starrer film Mubarakan.

"I never really had negative conceptions about Bollywood because I never experienced it. And touch ood I have still not experienced it because everybody has been very supportive and loving to me," she said.

Mubarakan features veteran actor Anil Kapoor and his nephew actor Arjun Kapoor together for the first time.

Actor Ileana D'cruz, wjo was last seen with Akshay Kumar in Rustom, is also a part of the project, produced by Sony Pictures Networks Productions, Murad Khetani's Cine 1 Studios and Ashwin Varde. The romantic comedy will release on July 28.

Talking about her journey in Bollywood, Athiya said, "Hero will always be extremely special and hold a very special place in my heart. I got to learn so much, made friends. I cherish every moment spent on the sets."
