Shilpa Shetty's knight in shining armour

Last evening, Raj Kundra gave Shilpa Shetty one more reason to fall in love with him. While Shilpa has time and again been rescued by macho heroes in films, this time it was beau Raj who played her real-life hero by rescuing her when a man tried to misbehave with her.

The incident in question happened when the entire Shetty family along with Raj and several film personalities were at the Golden Temple, Amritsar last evening to seek blessings. As expected, the crowd got uncontrollable on seeing the stars and suddenly a man touched Shilpa. A furious Raj bashed up the errant man.

An eyewitness said, “Everybody was on their way to the airport after the darshan and the parikramas at the Golden Temple. Raj, Shilpa and her family had to rush to the airport to catch the chartered flight back to Mumbai.”

“Since locals were aware that several celebrities were expected to visit the temple yesterday, a huge crowd had gathered to see the stars. The crowd was unmanageable but the organisers somehow managed to escort the celebrities.

Raj was rushing towards a bus in which they had come to the temple from the airport. Everybody had kept their bags and shoes in the bus and Shilpa, Shamita Shetty and their parents were following Raj.

Suddenly, one of the men in the crowd groped Shilpa and she screamed in disgust. Raj noticed what had happened and wasted no time in beating up the man. Raj punched the man's face several times. A stunned Shilpa kept telling Raj, 'Cookie (she fondly calls him Cookie) cool down,'” said the source.

“The policemen and the security guards rushed to control the situation. While they separated the two and took away the man who misbehaved with Shilpa, the organisers took Raj aside and calmed him down,” added the source.

Raj Kundra refused to divulge any details. He said, “It's too personal and I don't want to discuss anything.”
