TIGER SHROFF URGES FANS NOT TO DO ANYTHING SILLY

After two fans ran away from home to meet the actor, Tiger expressed concern and asked his fans to not do crazy things

Tiger Shroff has asked his fans not to do crazy things. Two die-hard fans of the actor ran away from their homes to meet their hero. Tiger expressed his concern for the boys and advised them never to repeat anything like that again.

“I can only urge them not to do anything they would regret later,” he said.

The boys, who had left their homes in Agra, have since been sent back by the police. When Tiger came to know of the misadventu­re, he said: “I’m deeply perturbed by this extravagan­t show of affection. Instead of feeling flattered, I am deeply troubled.”

“I’ve seen fans do crazy things for their favourite actors. My dad (Jackie Shroff) had some real crazy fan experience­s. Now when I get this kind of love I accept the warm affection humbly but I reject the drastic ways of showing them. I am very disturbed that the two boys ran away from their homes just to meet me. Imagine what trauma their families or caretakers must have gone through. This is just not done,” the actor said, expressing his concern at the situation.

Tiger said there must be easier ways for fans to meet their favourite stars - “like (Amitabh) Bachchan Saab, who religiousl­y interacts with his fans every Sunday”.

“Of course I don’t even think of myself as a star. But what do I do with these beautiful people who think I am a star?” Tiger said.
