Tiger Shroff’s Football Coach directs his Debut Movie

Sajid Nadiadwala and his production team have been busy training Jackie Shroff’s Son Tiger Shroff, for upcoming movie Heropanti. A source reveals that Sajid first met Tiger 15 years ago, at a football field when father Jackie insisted that Sajid train his son in football.

Tiger was introduced to Sajid as a 5 year old boy by Jackie Shroff, as he accompanied his father to an enjoyable football match. The producer regularly played football during those days and was a tough goal-keeper. After the match, Jackie walked up to Sajid and expressed his desire for the ace producer to train his son in the game.

Talking about the irony, a nostalgic Sajid stated, “I am very happy with how the movie is shaping up and the fact that I am actually fulfilling the responsibility given to me 15 years ago by Jackie to train his son. It certainly is a different space, but training it is! ”

“It’s the first time that my banner is launching newcomers, but I am happy it’s come at the right time and with the right script. Tiger is extremely talented and focussed, an amazing combination for a young newcomer. We firmly believe in this star of tomorrow.” Sajid added.

Under the banner of Nadiadwala Grandsons Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. (NGEPL), ‘Heropanti’ is directed by Sabbir Khan. Starring Tiger Shroff and KirtiSanon in lead roles, the film is slated to release on the 16th of May, 2014.

Looking forward to the release of Heropanti, Tiger Shroff commented, “It’s been a really long journey, firstly of understanding the movies and the craft and then immersing myself totally into the character and becoming it. Following that began the actual shooting … So yes I am really eager to see how the entire team’s hard work comes across, especially since it was a cast and crew that was entirely new.”

The debutante has been working hard for his acting debut, putting in his best to deliver a remarkable performance. Having honed his skills in martial arts and dance from a really young age, the young actor will be seen giving life to an off the edge character and some adrenaline-filled action scenes in the movie.
