In 2025, Shiney Ahuja, once a rising star in the Bollywood film industry, is living a quiet life in the Philippines, where he runs a garment business. Ahuja's career took a dramatic turn in 2009 when he was accused of raping his 19-year-old house help, a case that shocked the industry. Despite the complainant later withdrawing her statement, Ahuja was convicted and sentenced to 7 years in prison in 2011.
After his release, Ahuja attempted a brief comeback in 2015 with the film "Welcome Back," but by then, the industry had moved on. Now, over a decade after the scandal, Ahuja has left India and settled in the Philippines, far removed from his once-promising Bollywood career. Reports indicate that he has found a new path, focusing on his garment business and living a life away from the glare of fame.
