Since he debut film Heropanti, Tiger Shroff has been tagged as one of the fittest stars in Bollywood. He has often been dubbed as the action hero due to his high octane sequences in his movies and never fails to impress his fans with his outstanding performances. After his last film Baaghi 2, Tiger turned to the world of music and released a music video during the pandemic and went on to release another one, only due to the massive hit of its predecessor.
The actor recently appeared on Arbaaz Khan’s chat show Quick Heal Pinch. He opened up about trolling and how he has often been compared to his dad and veteran actor Jackie Shroff. During the show, Arbaaz read out the comment of filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, who trolled Tiger for one of his photoshoots and how he should take tips from his dad.
Though Arbaaz did not say RGV’s name out loud, he did share his tweet and said, “You are great at Martial Arts but if Bruce Lee ever posed like bikini babe like you, he wouldn’t have become Bruce Lee. Please Think. Please learn machoism from bhidu who even without martial arts poses more like a man and never like this.”
Reacting to RGV’s comment, Tiger had the nicest reply. The actor candidly said, “Sahi baat hai. Who can match up to bhidu’s (Jackie Shroff’s nickname) machoism other than bhaijaan, of course, Salman (Khan) bhai. It’s tough to match up with Bruce Lee also. Toh sir I think you’re absolutely right.”
Arbaaz also asked Tiger how his experience was when he started in the industry and how he reacted when he was compared to Jackie. Tiger shared that at a young age he knew how his dad was and he knew that he was different from his father. The actor added how he wanted to establish himself as an actor, different from his father, and make a name of his own in the film industry.
“People thought that he will walk like his dad, talk like his dad. But they got a (sic) shock when they saw my initial promos. Even in our interviews, I’m very different from my dad,” he said.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Tiger was last seen in Baaghi 3 co-starring Shraddha Kapoor, Riteish Deshmukh and Ankita Lokhande. He will star in the upcoming movies, Heropanti 2 alongside Tara Sutaria and Ganpat opposite Kriti Sanon.
