In a time when political correctness is the order of the day, Tiger Shroff surprises with his frank-speak.

Tiger Shroff: I Don't Care About The Padding Around Me..

I When quizzed about the reported induction of two star kidsturned-debutantes, Sridevi-Boney Kapoor’s daughter Jhanvi, and Chunky Panday’s daughter Ananya, opposite him in the Student of the Year sequel, the actor is mindful to not reveal much about the fi lm’s acting lineup, insisting instead that he has no inhibitions working with newcomers since he was one himself three years ago. “When I work with someone who is my junior, I know exactly what the person is going through. I’ve never felt the need to work with established actresses even though I have had the opportunity to work with the beautiful and fantastic Shraddha Kapoor (Baaghi) and Jacqueline Fernandez (A Flying Jatt).” But then, he adds candidly, “I don’t get involved with the casting at all. I don’t really care about the padding around me. It’s the script and my character that matter,” he asserts. Wonder if he is alluding to his leading ladies or to sartorial aesthetics.
