Sunday afternoon saw the men bond over food, TV and Tiger Shroff’s budding career in films

Prachi Kadam (MUMBAI MIRROR; July 23, 2012)

Sunday afternoon saw two actors share some warm camaraderie over a delectable lunch when Aamir Khan had invited Jackie Shroff to his Bandra pad. Besides catching up with the latest episodes of Aamir’s television reality show Satyamev Jayate, the men also spoke about Jackie’s son Tiger.

Aamir has been showing a keen interest in Tiger’s film career, and was even rumoured to launch him as an actor. However, Mirror now has it Tiger is starring in Sajid Nadiadwala’s film that goes on floors in early December this year.

Asked about the time spent with Aamir, Jackie said, “On a Sunday, like most people, we actors too love to meet up with friends over lunch or brunch. Aamir had invited me for lunch, and as I had told him I wished to watch his talk show, we watched it over food.”

Probed whether Tiger’s career plans were part of the conversation, Jackie dodged the question initially, later saying, “Aamir has been very supportive of Tiger’s film career. In fact, he has told Tiger he can approach him when he needs any help in terms of marketing, scripts etc. As Aamir has one of the best marketing minds in the industry, I feel Tiger is in safe hands.”

Asked how he feels about Tiger’s debut being in Sajid’s film and not Aamir’s, Jackie simply said, “He will begin shooting from December and my baby is now going to be an actor. So it’s a proud moment for me as a father and also makes me happy that he has the blessings of and guidance from well-wishers like Aamir. Sallu too has been very supportive of my boy, especially his body building skills, that too when he himself has one of the best bodies in the industry.”
