Shilpa and Raj met in London to discuss the business deal and back then she had no idea that Raj was married and was disappointed when she knew about the same as she was enamoured with his smile, charm and intelligence. 4 months later when Shilpa went to London, Raj offered her his bachelor pad to stay which surprised the actress since Raj was married.

The actress later realise that Raj was dropping hints for relationship and more, to which actress denied saying that she did not wanted to spoil their friendship and that she would never move to London, even though the actress was getting a little desperate to get married.
But it was not the end to their love story. On one random day Shilpa gets a call from raj who asks her if she has ever seen Jalsa (Amitabh Bachchan's residence) to which the actress gave an affirmative reply. Raj told her that he brought a floor in the building in front of the Jalsa, leaving Shilpa to wonder why would a London based person buy apartment floor in Mumbai.

Later on Raj told Shilpa that London or Mumbai never mattered as long as they were together and since then the two have been living a fairytale life with their two bundles of joy, their son Viaan Raj Kundra and their daughter Samisha Shetty Kundra.
