Tiger on working with Hrithik: “Feel blessed working with my idol”

Tiger Shroff is on cloud nine these days, as he will be working with his idol Hrithik Roshan, on an upcoming film. Shroff, who has undergone a complete makeover for the sequel to his successful ‘Baaghi’ (2016), admits that working with Roshan is an victory for him.

On the moment he was offered the film with Roshan, Mumbai Mirror reports Shroff saying, “I was sitting in front of my Rambo director Siddharth (Anand), and the producer of the film and trying to act cool, I told them, “I’d love to hear the script and take it forward from there”. But in my heart I was like, “Forget the script, I’m already on board!” I wanted to jump up and start dancing right there, right then! I feel blessed to be working with my idol. There’s so much I look forward to, just being around Hrithik sir feels like a victory to me. I will have to give more than 100 percent to the film because he’s so particular about everything. I’ll have to work twice as hard just to stand in the same frame as him. Ufff, he’s on another level altogether!”

He also added that his ‘Baaghi 2’ co-actor Disha Patani, who is also rumored to be his girlfriend, keeps him on his toes. “It’s a fresh pairing and we share a good rapport. She’s a hard working, diligent actor and I get inspired by just watching her. She’s also a great dancer so that keeps me on my toes during song shoots.”

Shroff will also be seen in the sequel to ‘Student of the Year’ (2012).
