Sajid Nadiadwala’s first meeting with his ‘Heropanti’ actor Tiger Shroff unveiled!

Would anybody believe that star kid Tiger Shroff, who is Jackie Shroff’s son, had it in his destiny from the time he was just 5 years old? Actually, we are talking about his debut film Heropanti here, which is being produced by ace film producer Sajid Nadiadwala. The producer, who is also Jackie’s good friend, took all the responsibility on him to offer Tiger a launch that he deserves. The two had met 15 years ago at a football court along with Jackie, who had then insisted Sajd to train his son in football. That introduction between Sajid and Tiger happened, when the young actor was only a 5 year old boy and had been to an exciting football match along with his father. On knowing that the producer was an amazing goal keeper and played football on regular basis, Jackie had requested him to be a tutor to his son.

That time, neither Tiger and his father, nor Sajid Nadiadwala was aware that the little 5 year old boy would go on to become an actor and star in the producer’s movie. So, this time, again Sajid is playing a great mentor to Tiger Shroff by shaping him in the right way for their upcoming movie Heropanti. Remembering those days and the entire incident, Sajid said, “I am very happy with how the movie is shaping up and the fact that I am actually fulfilling the responsibility given to me 15 years ago by Jackie to train his son. It certainly is a different space, but training it is!” Well said by the film maker, who is launching Tiger Shroff and Kriti Sanon in Heropanti, which is being directed by Sabbir Khan. Sabbir is also dedicatedly working towards polishing the star kid for his bright start in Bollywood and a successful future.

This Sajid Nadiadwala produced Heropanti is slated to release on 16^th May, this year!

The Bikaner episode of Highway Diaries by Sajid Nadiadwala and Imtiaz Ali!

We are sure that you must be enjoying all the episodes of Highway Diaries by Sajid Nadiadwala and Imtiaz Ali for their upcoming film Highway. This concept of sharing the behind the scene videos with the audience is quite a creative one. It is rightly said by the director, producer, and writer of the movie Imtiaz Ali that Highway is a road film. Also, the experiences involved in its making have actually made the entire story. For the first time, it is not the movie that has made them gain the experience, but the experiences that together make the movie. Happy to bring this 40 minute TV show episode to a whole new platform after a span of 15 years is its director Imtiaz. He always wanted to work on this project and finally his dream comes true.

Highway is being distributed as well as presented worldwide by film producer Sajid Nadiadwala in association with UTV Motion Pictures. Actors Alia Bhatt and Randeep Hooda are playing the lead role in the movie, which is about these two characters, which are extremely different from each other. Coming back to the Highway Diaries, this time it was Bikaner, a place in Rajasthan that was covered in the 6^th episode of the video series. The director along with his crew enjoyed travelling on truck-tops along the typical Rajasthani highways, villages and farms. They also captured the folk music of Rajasthan live in the state.

The executive producer of Highway Rajesh Sharma said, “In our childhood, we have had read in books and seen in films the folk music of Rajasthan. Due to this movie we have got the opportunity to watch that live at actual locations. I am feeling very good today.” After listening to the performance Rajesh added, “It was a wonderful experience, the performance was lively as well as exciting. We had fun.” This Sajid Nadiadwala presentation Highway will release on 21^st February, 2014!
