Shilpa Shetty's Bastian, a Mumbai hotspot co-owned by the actress, is reportedly raking in significant revenue, attracting a luxurious clientele, according to author Shobhaa De. While exact figures remain undisclosed by Shetty herself, sources suggest the restaurant generates ₹2-3 crore nightly.
Bastian's popularity stems from its celebrity appeal, drawing in Bollywood stars and other high-profile individuals. The restaurant has become synonymous with Mumbai's glamorous dining scene, with De noting the presence of Lamborghinis and Aston Martins outside the venue, indicative of its upscale clientele. Celebrities such as Salman Khan, Mira Rajput, and Bhumi Pednekar have been spotted at Bastian, further solidifying its reputation as a celebrity haunt. Social media is filled with posts raving about the restaurant's food and ambiance, with many celebrities hosting events there. Sonakshi Sinha and her husband, Zaheer Iqbal, even hosted their wedding reception at Bastian.
The restaurant's Bandra location was recently closed for renovations in August 2025, but the owners have assured patrons that it will return with something significant. Bastian had generated substantial monthly revenue before its closure, with some sources estimating ₹10 crore in a good month. In the financial year ending in March 2024, the brand reportedly generated a revenue of ₹127 crore. Shetty has stated that Bastian paid the highest Goods and Services Tax (GST) in the hospitality business in 2024.
Bastian offers a modern seafood menu with a twist, along with American comfort food and fancy Sunday brunches. Reviews highlight the quality and respect for the ingredients used in the dishes. The restaurant is known for its Insta-worthy interiors, stylish ambiance, and attentive service.
While Bastian has garnered positive feedback, some reviews suggest it may be overrated. Some customers have reported issues with booking and service, while others found the cuisine to be unconventional. However, many appreciate the unique flavor combinations and overall dining experience.
Shilpa Shetty co-owns Bastian with restaurateur Ranjit Bindra and holds a 50% stake in the brand. Since partnering with Bindra in 2019, Shetty has played a role in expanding the Bastian brand to multiple locations, including Mumbai, Bangalore, and Pune. Shetty's net worth is estimated to be more than $35 million (around ₹134 crore), and some financial experts estimate that she earns ₹4-5 crore every month from Bastian. However, Shetty has dismissed these figures, stating that the restaurant's earnings are underestimated.
