Tiger Shroff Biography

Tiger Shroff is an Indian actor, trained martial artist and dancer who made his film debut in 2014. Born Jai Hemant Shroff, he is the son of actor Jackie ​

Early life and background

Jai Hemant Shroff, known professionally as Tiger Shroff, was born on 2 March 1990 in Mumbai, Maharashtra. Raised in a family with strong ties to the film industry, his father is actor Jackie Shroff and his mother is producer Ayesha Dutt. He grew up in Mumbai and attended Besant Montessori School in Juhu and the American School of Bombay before enrolling at Amity University, Noida. His formal education is listed as 12th standard, and he left university before completing a degree.

Tiger has trained in martial arts since early childhood and holds a fifth-degree black belt in Taekwondo. Sports and physical training were central to his upbringing; he developed interests in dancing, martial arts and fitness that later defined his screen persona. He cites Bruce Lee and Michael Jackson as role models.

Career

Tiger launched his film career with the 2014 action drama Heropanti. He prepared intensively for the role, spending several years training and performing many of his own stunts. Heropanti brought him early recognition and a number of debut awards, establishing him as a performer known for athleticism and dance.

Following his debut, Tiger appeared in films that leaned on his action and dance strengths. His 2016 action film Baaghi, co-starring Shraddha Kapoor, was a commercial success and grossed over ₹1 billion worldwide. In the same period he featured in Flying Jatt, a superhero film that required him to learn elements of Punjabi for the role. Tiger played a Michael Jackson-inspired dancer in 2017 and trained with Michael Jackson’s choreographer in Los Angeles for the part, incorporating a symbolic red tie in the character’s look as a homage.

In 2018 he returned in Baaghi 2, performing several complex stunt sequences himself. He also appeared in Student of the Year 2. Across these projects, Tiger built a reputation for physical commitment to stunts and dance, and for a screen image that blends martial-arts action with high-energy choreography.

Public profile

Tiger’s physical statistics have been widely reported: he is approximately 1.75 m (5'9") tall and around 70 kg (154 lbs). His listed body measurements include a 44-inch chest, 30-inch waist and 15-inch biceps. He has light brown eyes and black hair. On-screen and off-screen, he is frequently described as a fitness enthusiast and a fan of WWE wrestling.

He is unmarried. Over the years his relationships have attracted media attention; his past association with actress Disha Patani has been reported, and more recently he has been connected in reports with Deesha Dhanuka. In August 2023 media accounts noted that he had been linked to Deesha for about a year and a half, though Tiger at one point described himself as having been single for two years.

Tiger observes Hindu religious practices and has spoken about the influence of Lord Shiva on his approach to action and dance. He follows a non-vegetarian diet and maintains a disciplined gym routine.

Outside films, he has taken on roles such as brand ambassador and co-owner of the Bengaluru Tigers. He collects cars, with vehicles reported among his possessions, and owns properties including an eight-bedroom apartment in Khar, Mumbai, and a home in Pune.

Awards and recognition

For his debut performance in Heropanti he received multiple newcomer awards, including Best Male Debut at the Star Guild Awards and other early-career honours. His action-dance style and stunt work have been recurring points of praise from audiences and popular media.

Latest updates

Media reports in 2023 associated Tiger with Deesha Dhanuka and noted that people close to him were aware of the relationship. He has also remained active in projects that emphasize action and dance, continuing to build on the physical skills that have defined his screen persona.
