JACKIE SHROFF ON CINEMA LOVE AND MORE: THE INDUSTRY HAS EXPERIMENTED WITH ME A LOT
GLOBAL MOVIE MAGAZINE|February 2023
With a filmography of roughly 250 films from across industries, it's safe to say that Jackie Shroff has done his fair share of experimentation.
JACKIE SHROFF ON CINEMA LOVE AND MORE: THE INDUSTRY HAS EXPERIMENTED WITH ME A LOT

Between playing an anti-hero in his launch vehicle Hero (1983), a gangster with a conscience in Parinda (1989), a film star in Kaash (1987) and in Rangeela (1995), an IAF officer in Border (1997) and the antagonist in Mission Kashmir (2000), he has made a name for himself as a versatile and dependable actor. The masses rooted for his character in films like Ram Lakhan (1989), Gardish (1993), 1942: A Love Story (1994), Devdas (2002) and many more. Whether it is a leading role or in a supporting one, he's managed to leave an impact, thanks to his charm and towering screen presence. His impact on Indian cinema (and on pop culture) is evident in all the memes and videos featuring him, something that he takes in his stride. He is appreciated for his role of a benevolent ghost in Atithi Bhuto Bhava, an OTT release as he is for his role as a sorcerer, who captures ghosts in Phone Bhoot.

Love is on Jackie Shroff's mind, among other things as he reflects on onscreen love stories, impact of OTT, new age cinema, fitness and more in an exclusive chat with Filmfare. Excerpts:

Between the movie references and memes, Jackie Shroff seems to have a separate space in pop culture, how do you think that happened?

What are your thoughts on the continued rise of the OTT wave and how different is it from a big Bollywood production?
