Tiger Shroff

“As for Aamir Khan, he keeps raising the standard with every film. For an artist like me or a newcomer like me, we can only look up to that and dream, 'When will that be us someday?' There's so much to learn from him. He is the encyclopedia of acting.”

“I deliberately try to carry a different perception of myself as opposed to my father's. I respect my dad and his body of work, but I can't give him credit for what I am today. As a person, I give my parents full credit; career-wise, no.”

“I am like my mom: early to bed and early to rise.”

“I don't have that X factor; I have to bank on my skills, be true to my character, and hope to be accepted.”

“We are entertainers. We have to give our audience a good time. If my name serves that purpose, if that brings a smile on your face, then I think it is good and my job has been done.”

“Rather than running on the treadmill, which can become quite boring, I prefer to work on my dance routine. Besides being a good form of cardiovascular exercise, it is also a form of escape for me, as I never realise how much time has flown by when I am dancing.”

“Stuntmen don't have a lavish life. They are such hard working people, but not respected enough. And I don't like that. If I become something in my life, I want to give them a better life, take them to a higher level.”

“After marriage, my love won't be divided between my mom and my wife. It will be doubled. My mom has always been as much my hero as my father.”

“Michael Jackson is so unique, and I look up to him and try to imbibe as much from him and marry it to my own style.”

“Hrithik Roshan is my idol both onscreen as well as off screen. I wish that I could become just 50 percent like him.”

“If I have to use a body double, it means I'm not well prepared to do what I have to do.”

“Being star kids, there are certain expectations to live up to. There's a certain pressure from the public. And, if your film doesn't work, it's even worse.”

“My becoming an actor wasn't planned. My interest always lied in sports such as football, martial arts, gymnastics and dance.”

“I think cinema is so visually driven now, and people are so taken in by the glamour, gloss and all things good looking that we don't appreciate the craft as much as we used to in the bygone era.”

“I am happy with my name. It is such an attraction, and it makes people laugh.”

“Action is a universal language, so everyone understands a punch and a kick.”

“I am not at all stylish. For me, style is a state of mind and individuality.”

“It's a very competitive world out there. The competitive spirit is fine within limits. But it shouldn't drown the sheer joy of the game being played. It's natural to want to win. But to me, it's not natural to want others to fail.”

“I definitely think there is a lot of expectation and pressure being a star's son.”

“I am trying to give whatever little fans I have as much information as they want from me. I don't want to come across as arrogant or mean by not telling or giving them what them I want. These are the people who make you a star.”
