Jaikishan Kakubhai Shroff[1] (born 1 February 1957), known by his screen name Jackie Shroff, is an Indian actor and former model from Mumbai, Maharashtra, who primarily works in the Hindi film industry. In a career spanning over four decades, he has appeared in 250 films in 13 languages.[n 1][2][3] He has received several accolades including four Filmfare Awards. Shroff established himself as one of the leading actors of Indian cinema in the 1980s and the 1990s.

After an uncredited small appearance in Swami Dada (1982), Shroff made his lead debut with Subhash Ghai's blockbuster actioner Hero (1983), which made him an overnight star.[4][5] He went onto establish himself as an actor with hit films, almost every year in 1980s and 90s and went to win the Filmfare Award for Best Actor for Parinda.[6] His other critical and commercial successes, include Tridev (1989), Baap Numbri Beta Dus Numbri (1990), Angaar (1992), Khalnayak (1993), Rangeela (1995), Agni Sakshi (1996), Border (1997) and Bandhan (1998).[7][8]

In the 2000s, Shroff took on more supporting and negative roles in Refugee, Mission Kashmir (both 2000), Devdas (2002), Hulchul (2004), Dhoom 3 (2013), Happy New Year (2014), and Sooryavanshi (2021). Shroff has worked in films of other languages including Punjabi film Sardar Saab (2017), Konkani film Soul Curry (2017), Tamil films Bigil (2019), Jailer (2023) and Telugu film Saaho (2019).

In addition to his acting career, Shroff is an environmentalist. He is married to model and producer Ayesha Dutt, with whom he has two children, actor Tiger Shroff and entrepreneur Krishna Shroff.[9]

Early life

Shroff was born as Jaikishan Kakubhai Shroff (or Saraf)[10][a] on 1 February 1957 in Bombay (present Mumbai), Bombay State, India.[11][12] His father, Kakubhai Haribhai Shroff, was a Gujarati. His mother was a Turkmen who fled the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic (present-day Kazakhstan) during a coup, according to Shroff.[b][13][14] His maternal grandmother escaped to Ladakh, along with her seven daughters, and migrated to Delhi, finally reaching Mumbai.[13][14]

Shroff's father came from a family of merchants and traders. However, they lost all of their money in the stock market and his father had to leave home at the age of 17. His father met his mother when both were teenagers and got married.[13]

Shroff dropped out of junior college after finishing his 11th class. He was raised in the Teen batti locality of Mumbai. In his childhood, he fought many street fights for his friends and often got beat up. His father Kakubhai was an astrologer.[10]

As a youngster, he modelled in a few advertisements including Savage perfumes. It was one of his classmates in school who gave Shroff his name "Jackie" and then filmmaker Subhash Ghai stuck to this name when he launched him in the film Hero.[15][16] Shroff regularly revisits his childhood home in Teen Batti.[17]

Career

Initial work

Jackie Shroff dropped out of school after his 11th standard as his family did not have much money. He tried his hand working as an apprentice chef at Taj Hotels and as a flight attendant at Air India, but he was rejected from both places because of his lack of qualifications.[18] He then started working as a travel agent in a local company called Trade Wings near Jehangir Art Gallery.[14] An advertising agency accountant spotted him at the bus stand and asked him if he would be interested in modelling. The next day, Shroff went to the advertising agency (National advertising agency) located in the same building as Davar's college near Flora Fountain for the photo shoot during his lunch time. This photo shoot for a suit shirt launched Shroff on his modelling path.[19] Aasha K Chandra, who was running an acting school, asked Shroff to join her class. Initially, Shroff refused her, but after she said that Dev Anand's son Suneil Anand is also attending her class, Shroff enrolled there. Suneil Anand introduced Shroff to his father, Dev Anand, who gave Shroff his first acting role.[10]

Films

In 1982, Shroff made his acting debut in Dev Anand's 1982 film Swami Dada. In his first meeting with Anand, he was offered the second lead role but after 15 days, Anand changed his mind and gave the role to Mithun Chakraborty. Shroff was cast as one of the henchmen of Shakti Kapoor in an uncredited role.[20]

Shroff during a script narration session

In 1983, Subhash Ghai cast Shroff in the lead role for the action romance Hero, paired with Meenakshi Sheshadri. The film was a major critical and commercial success, and one of the highest grossers of 1983. The film made Shroff and Seshadri into overnight stars.[16][21] Shroff continued to work in Subhash Ghai films, irrespective of any role that was offered. After Hero, Shroff did several other films, such as Andar Baahar (1984), Jaanoo and Yudh (both released in 1985). All of these films were successful. In 1986, he was seen in Karma, which became the highest-grossing film of the year. His next film to be released was Kaash (1987). Later films, such as Dahleez (1986) and Sachché Ká Bol-Bálá (1989) were critically acclaimed, but failed at the box office. However, he came back to success through films such as Ram Lakhan, Tridev and Parinda (all 1989). His performance in Parinda earned him the Filmfare Award for Best Actor.

In the 1990s, he starred in successful films such as Saudagar (1991), Angaar (1992), Gardish (1993), Khalnayak (1993), 1942: A Love Story (1994), Rangeela (1995) Agni Sakshi (1996), Border (1997) and Shapath (1997).[22] During this period, he received a nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Actor for Gardish, and nominations for the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor for Khalnayak, 1942: A Love Story, Rangeela and Agni Sakshi, winning for 1942: A Love Story and Rangeela.

During the 2000s, he appeared in supporting roles in Mission Kashmir (2000), which earned him a nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Villain, Yaadein (2001), Devdas (2002) and Hulchul (2004), earning two nominations for the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor for Yaadein and Devdas. In 2006, Shroff acted in the children's film Bhoot Ukle. He played a minor role in Priyadarshan's Bhagam Bhag (2006) and Housefull 3 (2016).[23] During this period, he also appeared in two Marathi films.

In 2010, he appeared in the film Bhoot and Friends.[24] In 2011, he appeared in a cameo role in the film Shraddha In The Name Of God directed by Gurubhai Thakkar.[25]

In 2017, Shroff made his debut in Konkani, acting in the film Soul Curry, which earned him the Goa State Award for Best Actor. Subsequently, he acted in another Konkani film released in 2019, titled Kantaar.[26][27]

In October 2018, he acted in a short film, The Playboy Mr. Sawhney.[28] He was also seen in Paltan (2018). He is set to feature in many films in 2019 like Firrkie, Bharat, Saaho, and Romeo Akbar Walter.[29] He is also going to star in Prasthanam, which Hindi remake of Telugu film with same name alongside Ali Fazal and Sanjay Dutt.[30]

Television

Shroff has hosted many television shows like Lehrein, Chirtrahar and Missing.[31] Dealing with stories of missing people who were never found, Missing was popular for its creative narration by Shroff. The show was broadcast on Sony TV, of which he owned some shares.[32] Shroff was also a judge on the magic show India's Magic Star, broadcast on Indian channel STAR One. The show began on 3 July 2010 and ended on 5 September 2010.[33] In 2014, Shroff and his son Tiger Shroff made an appearance on Comedy Nights with Kapil.[22] In 2019, Shroff made his digital debut with the series Criminal Justice.[34]
