Actor Shilpa Shetty, known for her work in Bollywood and as an entrepreneur in the hospitality sector, is expanding her restaurant business despite facing legal scrutiny. On Thursday, Shetty officially revealed the launch date for Ammakai, her new South Indian restaurant located in Bandra, Mumbai. The development comes as Shetty and her husband, Raj Kundra, remain under investigation for alleged involvement in a Rs 60 crore fraud case.
Ammakai is opening at the same Bandra location where Shetty’s popular restaurant chain Bastian first began operating. The decision to introduce a new South Indian dining experience in this area reflects Shetty’s continued interest in strengthening her presence within Mumbai’s competitive restaurant industry. The launch of Ammakai follows the success of Bastian, which has become a recognised name in the city’s culinary scene.
The announcement was made on Thursday, as Shetty shared details regarding Ammakai’s opening.

Ammakai will contribute to Mumbai’s dynamic dining landscape, offering a new option for South Indian cuisine enthusiasts in Bandra.
