Asked if he would like to work in a biopic, actor Tiger Shroff says it will be toss between Bruce Lee and Michael Jackson for him. "While I grew up watching Lee’s martial arts sequences in films, I have worshipped Jackson ever since I can remember. I would love to portray their lives on screen."
Tiger Shroff recently released a video to pay
. The video was a mash-up of the song Whistle Baja (from Tiger’s debut film) and Jackson’s hit number, Billie Jean.
The actor has now said he would love to play Michael Jackson if a biopic is ever made on the legendary singer. "It’s a toss-up between Bruce Lee and Jackson. These two are my heroes, and I would love to play either of them in a biopic. While I grew up watching Lee’s martial arts sequences in films, I have worshipped Jackson ever since I can remember. I would love to portray his life on screen — from the ’80s when he started getting famous till the time, I hate to say, he passed away in 2009," Tiger says.
About his tribute video for the king of pop, the 23-year-old further said, "Jackson has been my idol. He has been my favourite ever since I started learning dancing. So, for the tribute, I chose Whistle baja, a song that gave me so much recognition and love, along with Billie Jean."
More so because, "Billie Jean was the song in which Jackson performed his iconic moonwalk for the very first time in 1983," Tiger added.
