For a long time now, there was buzz that Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff will play the role of former footballer Baichung Bhutia in the latter's biopic but the SOTY 2 actor has denied all such rumours.
In an interview with a daily, Tiger Shroff said that he has not been approached for the film. It will be Tiger's first biopic if he will be cast for the project. Tiger, who will next be seen with Hrithik Roshan in an untitled film, has rubbished the reports. He said, "I’m doing no such project."
When asked whose biopic would he like to do, the actor said that he would like to work on Jackie Shroff's biopic. He said, "I’d never like to be in a remake of any of his films because I will come out very poor in comparison. But I’d love to play him on screen. Who understands Jackie Shroff better than his son?"
Tiger was last seen in Dharma Productions’ Student Of The Year 2 and is now prepping up for a dance film with his idol Hrithik Roshan under the banner of Yash Raj Films.
