Shilpa Shetty Kundra too shared a post on Instagram, as she dedicated the day to her spiritual belief. She shared a picture of herself offering prayers in altar along with the caption that read, "I believe, more than being religious, I'm spiritually inclined. My Guru, My Sai, shows me the way and direction...When you have Faith, or follow a guru, you must do so implicitly and have belief in his vision... whether it's a living Guru or God/Universe." The 'Apne' star added, "Faith is the bedrock of success or satisfaction. This Guru Purnima, look inward and keep unwavering faith, that it's all happening for the best... and only the BEST will unfold. As Sai says, Shraddha aur Saboori (Faith and Patience) Happy Gurupurnima to all," Shilpa added.
