Tiger Shroff on Student Of The Year 2: I’m playing more of my age, more younger

Tiger Shroff is all set to star in Student of the Year 2. Well, the highly anticipated movie has raised the curiosity among the fans about Tiger’s character in the film. Tiger has always been a part of action movies. Talking about the same, Tiger said, "It wasn’t a conscious decision at all. I was just following my instinct. I’ve been accepted primarily because I sort of stuck to those things and that being on the back burner and script first. Most of the times, directors wanted to cash in on my talents that way."

Speaking about his role in SOTY 2, he said, "Well it’s definitely a contrast to Baaghi 2. I’m playing more of my age, more younger. I’m not playing a one-man killing machine type. I play a boy going to school, facing his problems and being a boy next door kind of a guy and a very realistic character."


Talking about the film, Tiger had said earlier, "I don’t have much action in the film (Student of the Year 2). I didn’t choose it to break the stereotype. It was an honour to work with Dharma Productions. It is Karan Johar’s baby franchise, his priced possession and he is passing it on to me, so there’s an expectation. I take huge pride in taking the legacy forward of Student of the Year."

Adding further, he said, “For me, it’s great as an actor to explore different facets. I’ve never played a regular, normal lover boy. It’s like a musical. If I get bullied there, the audience will be surprised. Suddenly after Baaghi 2, here I am getting bullied. So for me, that’s scoring marks."
