Tiger Shroff

“I am a day dreamer. I visualise a lot of things at the same time.”

“I think stardom means a big responsibility that one has to shoulder.”

“After working for a couple of years, I have realised how much hard work it takes to become an actor, and my father has gone through it all these years. It's draining, both physically and mentally, but he makes it look so effortless.”

“Apparently, I used to bite, scratch and growl at people when I was young, so my parents named me 'Tiger.'”

“I have had a lot of crushes but have never had the courage to go up to a girl and say what I feel. I am scared of rejection.”

“I can stand up for what I believe in. I don't take the word 'rebel' in a negative connotation.”

“Whenever I meet children's parents, they complain that the kids don't sleep until they listen to my whistle baja song! My songs have captivated the kids.”

“In my house, my mother is my superhero.”

“Since childhood, I have been a fan of Spider Man because, according to me, he has the maximum humanity; he is very human, very mortal. So he even gets hurt. He has a poor background, but when he wears the costume, he forgets all of that, all the pressures of the society on him.”

“I look for roles where I can do justice, show people a side of Bollywood they haven't seen before.”

“I am comfortable in my character's skin. I am uncomfortable being in my own skin.”

“There are so many talented actors in my contemporaries and my seniors... I seek inspiration from each one of them.”

“I really respect actors much more now that I am one because I realise what hard work goes into being part of the industry.”

“I like girls who are the housewife-type.”

“My mom is my biggest support and critic. I've tried to be a good son, and I don't think I've given her a single day of grief. I want her to know she has my unconditional love.”

“I am who I am. I am not very complicated. I am simple and an introvert.”

“I will benefit from being a part of this industry, but I also want the industry to benefit from me.”

“I never liked going to school and would sham and play football. I played in the centre forward position. If ever given a choice, I would love to represent Barcelona.”

“Every child in every country in every small town should know who I am. There are a handful of people who have achieved that, and two of them are my idols Michael Jackson and Bruce Lee. I'd like to get to that level someday and touch as many lives as I can.”

“I am an over-thinker and tend to stress a lot.”
