Tiger Shroff likes keeping it down to earth but gosh, he won’t move without this entourage! He recently scuttled a trip to Cape Town by his insistence on taking six members of his personal team along…
It so happened that a year ago, the innerwear brand that Tiger endorses, had organized a fan contest. Naturally, the response was huge, given that the lad is very popular with the younger generation. Kids and the younger lot, especially, were thrilled to participate. After all, the contest offered them the chance to go on a foreign jaunt with the hunky actor to Cape Town!

The winners of the contest, ‘Show Off With Tiger Shroff’ had been selected. This January, when the organizers of the contest got in touch with Tiger, he had also confirmed that he would be part of the Cape Town trip. It would be a good chance to promote his upcoming film, Baaghi 2 as well. The organizers were in touch with Tiger in February again, to re-confirm his presence on the trip. This time too, Tiger agreed but hello, suddenly conditions applied!
Apparently, Tiger informed that he would want his personal staff to come along on the trip to Cape Town – all six of them! This came as a bolt from the blue for the organizers. They tried convincing Tiger to reduce the numbers as their budget simply could not accommodate the hefty costs of taking along six crew members.
However, Tiger apparently dug his heels in and refused to lessen the numbers. He let it be known that if he was to go, all six members of his entourage would go along, else…
Eventually, the brand was left with no choice but to go back on its promise of taking Tiger to Cape Town with the contest winners. They shared on their Facebook page that Tiger Shroff would now meet the winners in Mumbai instead. Their post clarified, “The winners will get to go to Cape Town and a meet and greet session with Tiger Shroff will take place in Mumbai. Note: Tiger Shroff will not be accompanying the winners to Cape Town.”
Definitely disappointing for the fans… Would the generally humble star care to clarify his starry behaviour?
