Shilpa Shetty's Goa club Bastian Riviera runs despite violations: India Today probe

In this special report, India Today correspondent Divyesh Singh exposes the alleged illegal operations of Bastian Riviera, a club in Morjim, Goa, promoted by actress Shilpa Shetty. Despite a demolition order issued on October 7, 2025, following the deadly fire at 'Birch by Romeo Lane', the club continues to function. The Goa Coastal Zone Management Authority (GCZMA) recently set aside the demolition order citing procedural lapses and issued a fresh show-cause notice to the landowner, Carrick Bend Realty LLP, with a reply deadline of January 8, 2026. The report questions if 'VIP treatment' is being accorded to the celebrity-owned establishment while other clubs face sealing.
