Aamir Khan turns godfather for Tiger Shroff

After Tiger Shroff, Aamir Khan lends support to his sister

Bollywood’s very own Mr. Perfectionist, Aamir Khan who turned godfather for the Heropanti debutant Tiger Shroff is now all set to support his younger sister Krishna Shroff by lending his support for her documentary. A report on Koimoi.com, stated that Aamir Khan extended his support to Tiger’s sister Krishna Shroff by co-producing her documentary based on the life of transgenders. Krishna, 22, was stated as saying that Aamir is a very close family friend and is well aware of her documentary. The documentary, which was all set to release in January this year, was delayed due to post production work. However, the budding filmmaker wants Aamir Khan to watch her film before it is released to the wider audience. Being a philanthropist and someone who has good knowledge of social issues, Krishna thinks Aamir Khan is the ideal person to deliver honest opinions about her documentary. We wish Krishna all the very best for her debut filmmaking venture.

While Jackie and Aamir Khan are said to be good friends from the time they worked together in Rangeela, read on to know how the latter supported his friend's son Tiger Shroff with his debut film.

Jackie Shroff has been inundated with calls and offers to help promote his son's (Tiger Shroff) film. He will be seen in Sajid Nadiadwala’s production which is titled Heropanti. Everyone in the industry has reached out to Jackie Shroff wishing to extend their support to Tiger Shroff, who they feel will be the biggest launch of this year. There is a lot of excitement in the industry with Tiger Shroff all set to make his debut in Bollywood.

The trailer launch of Heropanti was one grand launch events. Aamir Khan who shares a great bond with Jackie Shroff had unveiled the trailer and introduced Tiger and Kirti to the media. Heropanti marks one of the biggest launches of the year with Tiger Shroff making his debut in the film. When the idea of the launch was being discussed, the makers and Jackie Shroff both thought of Aamir Khan to share their moment with him. Aamir Khan- Jackie Shroff have not only worked together but also have been involved on their personal front. When the actor was approached, he was very keen to be a part of Tiger’s launch, as he is very fond of Tiger.

The Heropanti trailer received a roaring applaud involving a lot of hoots and whistles. Subhash Ghai who was the maker of Hero, Jackie Shroff's debut film, was also present at the trailer launch to see Tiger take forward his father's legacy with Heropanti. Tiger's entire family including father Jackie, mother Ayesha and sister Krishna were present to be a part of his big moment and as always Jackie was at his humorous best.

As Tiger Shroff’s first film is nearing release, there has been an increased excitement about his film. Sajid Nadiadwala, has been personally over looking all the details for Tiger Shroff’s launch. When contacted Sajid Nadiadwala said, “Launching someone is a huge responsibility. Tiger is extremely talented and focused, an amazing combination for a young newcomer. He is one of the most anticipated launches of this year.” Sajid further adds “It is the first time we are launching someone under our banner and are gearing up for it.”

Heropanti's release date has been pushed from May 16 to May 23. Sajid Nadiadwala says, “We had initially planned to release the film on May 16, but since it is a counting day, we have decided to push the film ahead to May 23. We have also requested Karan Johar to release his film Ungli on another day. He has gracefully agreed to do the same, just so that Tiger’s film gets a solo release.”

Tiger Shroff, who will perhaps be seen doing a lot of action sequences in his debut film, has apparently been training hard to be an action hero. Sources close to the actor tell us that the soon-to-debut actor has been focusing a lot on his action moves. “Ever since Tiger decided to become an actor, he was sure that he wanted to be an action hero. He began working out and took lessons on ways to perform action sequences. He is also a trained gymnast, which made it easier for him,” says a source close to the actor. We are told that all the advance physical training came in handy when Tiger began work on the film. “For almost two years before he began shooting for his debut film, Tiger had started to work on his body, and on sharpening his skills to perform action scenes,” the source adds. Divulging details about the film, the source adds, “He will be seen performing a lot of stunts in the film. A particular fight sequence in it will be one of the highlights of the trailer as well.”
