Raj Kundra, who loves to joke around, recently said that he agreed to marry actress Shilpa Shetty because of her mother Sunanda Shetty, who celebrates her 70th birthday today. Raj Kundra shared an adorable picture of Shilpa and Sunanda Shetty and described his mother-in-law as "eternal divine beauty inside and out." Raj Kundra captioned the picture: "They say if you want to know how your wife is going to look like when she is older see the mum first. Well, all I can say is I saw the mum and said yes to the daughter in a snap! Because if my wife is 10% of what Sunanda Shetty ma is like, I will be a very lucky man! Happy 70th Birthday Ma you are an eternal divine beauty inside and out. Thank you for all your prayers and blessings for the family and your unconditional love."
Shilpa Shetty, who is the elder of Sunanda and Surendra Shetty's two daughters, also shared a special birthday post for her mother.
