I had a childhood crush on Shraddha Kapoor: Tiger Shroff

Tiger Shroff is as unassuming as they come. No starry hangups about him. We had a short chat recently where he spoke about his upcoming film Baaghi and how he told co-star Shraddha Kapoor that he had a crush on her during their school days and how he was too shy to ever tell her back then...

Shraddha told us that you knew her since childhood, but you guys never spoke much…
That’s true. I was shy back in school. I am still shy (smiles). It’s very difficult for me to go upto a girl and tell her how I feel, especially if I have a crush on her. I had a crush on Shraddha in school, but I never could tell her that.

How’s it going with the shoot of Baaghi?
Oh, I am really excited for the film. I have some amazing action sequences in it. We just shot for a song with Shraddha and it was a fabulous experience. 

Who broke the ice?
We had to break the ice the day we met on the sets. So I think both of us made an equal effort. She’s a very chilled-out, nice girl.

Comfortable shaving your head for Baaghi?
Really? (Smiles) I am not comfortable; but for the film, I might have to make some sacrifices. If this is one of them, so be it.
