Taking to her Instagram handle, the actress unveiled a throwback snap from her childhood. In the monochromatic image, she is captured in a moment of spirited exclamation. Athiya captioned the post, “Adorable but fierce ♏️”.

Recently, Athiya's father, Suniel Shetty, who graces the judges' panel of the dance reality show ‘Dance Deewane’, hinted at a potential future role as a grandfather in the upcoming season of the show.
Netizens seized upon this clue, flooding the comments section of Athiya’s post with speculation.

Athiya's brother, Ahan Shetty, chimed in with a playful remark in the comments, “This has been my reality for 28 years 🙄.”
Actress Malvika Mohanan joined in the fun with a laughter emoji reaction.
Athiya tied the knot with cricketer KL Rahul on January 23, 2023, in an intimate ceremony held at Suniel Shetty’s Khandala farmhouse, attended by close-knit circles of friends and family.
