Ready to up the action quotient with Heropanti 2, Tiger Shroff discusses consciously playing righteous characters to inspire his fan base of children

A still from Heropanti 2


Heropanti 2 promises all that one expects from a Tiger Shroff fare - gravity-defying stunts, slick dance moves and a good-versus-evil story at the core. The actor rarely veers away from action, the genre he knows best. He claims the difference is in the treatment of his films, with him trying to up the ante with every actioner. "The world of Heropanti 2 is different in terms of action. If Baaghi was raw and rustic, this is massy and set in a glossy world. It is not muddy and dirty; every frame is slick. It has the vibe of say, Mission: Impossible meets James Bond meets War," shares Shroff enthusiastically.

Whether one agrees with the parallels or not, it can't be denied that the actor has a finger on the audience's pulse. His movies have a way of appealing to their target audience. For now, Shroff is happy to play up the action image; experimentation can come later. "I am following the formula that works for me. I am aware of what's working and what's not working in terms of my career. So, I give my audience what they expect of me."

Ahmed Khan's directorial venture, also starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Tara Sutaria, sees Shroff as a smart hacker who is brought in to stop cyber crime. The actor says that he chooses his projects carefully, going not only by his role but also by the audience's possible take-away from the film. The latter is particularly important to him as he enjoys a wide fan base among children. "Most of the time, I play a righteous [character]. I have people from young age groups following me. So, for me, it's important to keep kids in mind when I am choosing my scripts and characters. I don't want to [misguide] our future generation. I consider myself blessed that I have the responsibility as a lot of kids look up to me."
