In an interview, Tiger Shroff was asked about the categorization of the stars according to their roles.On these lines, Tiger said, “Because people are categorizing me as an action star or a dancer, I feel like I have already made my identity. When a script demands a particular style of action or dance, I don’t want to be the second choice. That people try to define me is testimony to the fact that I’ve made a huge impact in three films. I am trying to create a space of my own and want to dominate it.”
He added, “I admire my contemporaries but don’t look at them as competition. I believe they are a different breed. I don’t think many of them can do what I do.”
When he started his career, many people thought that Tiger would follow the footsteps of dad Jackie Shroff. But the actor disagrees and said that he has made a place of his own. Talking about this, he said, “I am thankful to be Jackie Shroff‘s son. But that puts a lot of pressure on me. I don’t want people to call me Jackie Shroff ka beta. Instead, I want him to be known as Tiger Shroff’s dad. Yes, I have an ego.”
On being asked about ‘Baaghi 2’ with Disha Patani, he said, “I am looking forward to working with her. We are comfortable with each other and spend a lot of time together. So, it is definitely going to be easy to collaborate. Our chemistry will look natural on screen.”
In Munna Michael, he has given a tribute to his dad and Michael Jackson. A self-confessed Michael Jackson fan said, “I’m waiting for someone to offer me a biopic on Michael Jackson.”
