Until we point out the off-pairing of him and Disha Patani as siblings in Radhe-Your Most Wanted Bhai, Jackie Shroff says the ambiguity around their age difference never crossed his mind.  “Now that you brought it up I am thinking of my age,” teases Shroff, adding that it is tough for an artiste to survive in the industry if they are concerned with trivial matters. 

For Shroff, whose actor-son Tiger is dating Patani, the recipe for success has always been paying heed to the director’s requirements. “I go on set and you will see a different side of my personality. I mold myself as per the director’s needs. I don’t consider the relations. If we think about the emotion, we can’t work. Listen to your director, work and leave. If you are capable of working, walking, and acting, be grateful.”
