Tiger Shroff in a still from Baaghi.
New Delhi:
Actor Tiger Shroff is a great dancer and said that he wishes to open a dance school to train talent across the country.
Tiger is not a fan of various dance competition shows and thinks that an institute would be a better platform for budding performers.
"I wanted to open a dance school for everybody including the underprivileged. There's so much talent in India that goes unnoticed," Tiger told PTI.
"People have to pave their way through dance competitions, and I am totally against that. If I am able to make a name for myself, then I will surely open a dance school," said Tiger.
Tiger is inspired by Hrithik Roshan and said that he is an effortless dancer.
"Whenever I meet him, I ask him so many questions about his career and how he prepares for his songs. I always tell him, 'Sir, every time I see you in a song, everything else becomes invisible and I am left looking at you. How do you make things look so easy'," said Tiger.
Besides their love for dance, Tiger said that they both share similar philosophies about life and career.
"We have a similar mindset. We are very hard on ourselves. Our philosophies are somewhat similar regarding life and careers. So, along those lines, we talk. We usually talk about fitness," said Tiger.
Tiger is excited about his upcoming film Baaghi and said that the film has the potential of becoming a cult action movie.
"Baaghi gave me a lot of scope to perform. It has never seen before action and not just nonsensical fighting. There is a strong emotional content in it which drives the action forward. I want the audience to whistle and cheer for me in the film. That is what I am fighting for. I have worked hard to make it look like a spectacle but I want the emotional quotient to come even stronger," said Tiger.
Tiger feels that the action in the film is different from other films.
"I think we are trained to see a hero punch somebody and 10 others go flying in the air. We are used to seeing heroes bounce villains on the floor like a basketball. I find that a little nonsensical. If it's done in a humorous way, it is okay but that is not something I like to do," said Tiger.
After his next project, which is a superhero film, the actor is going to take a break from the action genre.
"For now, Baaghi is the best I could offer in terms of action to my audience. I don't think I will get something like this easily again. Till then, I don't see myself doing anything in that direction," said Tiger.
Baaghi, also starring Shraddha Kapoor, will release on April 29.
