Shroffs on roll as Jackie-Tiger face the camera

  • IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,August 09 2012]

Jackie Shroff is seeing his career taking an upswing all over again, what with Chopras playing a major role in that.

After signing him to play a pivotal part in 'Dhoom 3', they have also finalised him for 'Aurangzeb'.

Though there are on and off talks of Jackie playing Aamir Khan's mentor in 'Dhoom 3' and Ranveer Singh's father in 'Aurangzeb', NDA signed by all involved means nothing has been revealed on records so far.

However Jackie is happy that he returns to the Yash Raj Films close to couple of decades after working with them in 'Aaina' (1993).

Aditya (Chopra) just called me out of the blue and informed that he was considering me for 'Dhoom 3'. They asked me to meet the director (Vijay Krishna Acharya) and hear the part I had to play.

I liked what he had to narrate and immediately said yes; it was as simple as that, smiles Shroff.

Similar story was repeated for 'Aurangzeb' as well and it was all the more interesting since the film also pairs Jackie's 'Aaina' heroine, Amrita Singh, with him.

'Dhoom 3' as well as 'Aaina' would release next year.

Moreover Tiger Shroff too would be making his debut with Sajid Nadiadwala and Sabbir Khan's 'Heropanti'. Looks like there would be a lot that one would hear about Shroffs in months to come.
