Anupam Kher wrote, “ACTORS of TANVI THE GREAT: My friend #JackieShroff is actually my brother from another mother. We have not only worked together in so many movies, we are also related. Not many know that his wife Ayesha Shroff has been tying Rakhi to me for more than 30 years. Jackie has a golden heart. ‘Love’ can be his second name. He has so much of it in him.”
He added, “One day he dropped in at my place. I was yet to cast my film #TanviTheGreat! But I had recorded few songs. I made him listen to them. He was quiet for a long time after listening to them. Then he hugged me and said. Don’t make this film without me. Brig. Joshi like any Indian army officer is larger than life. Strong, decisive and yet compassionate. His portrayal will be remembered for years!”
“Thank you Shroff for your selfless friendship and brilliant acting. You are a pillar of my strength. Both, on and off screen! Jai Hind!” he concluded.
Jackie Shroff and Anupam Kher share a close-knit bond for years. Now that the two iconic actors are collaborating for a one-of-a-kind film, audiences are keen to see what they have to offer with their substantial vision towards filmmaking.
