Jiah Khan's Suicide: Suniel Shetty defends Suraj Pancholi

Suniel Shetty, who is planning to launch his daughter in Bollywood, opposite Suraj Pancholi in Hero's remake, has defended Suraj in Jiah Khan's suicide case.

Suniel Shetty says that he does not regret his decision to launch Aathiya Shetty with Aditya Pancholi's son Suraj. In an interview to a leading daily, Suniel said that Suraj is as mush as his child as Aathiya and he doesn't think that Suraj can harm anyone.

Suniel Shetty further added, "They had a relationship. Whatever happened between them is known only to them. No second person can take responsibility for an individual's death. I've met Suraj. He's sweet, soft spoken boy. I don't see him harming anyone, least of all someone he loved."

The actor also added that Hero's shooting will start in September and he has full faith in Suraj Pancholi and Salman Khan, who is launching Suraj in Bollywood. And the controversies surrounding Suraj make no difference to the movie.
