Tiger Shroff recently shared a dance video on social media where he paid tribute to Michael Jackson. In the video, he performed on the well known song Billie Jean and recreated some of the signature moves made famous by the King of Pop.
Tiger performed steps like the moonwalk and leg shuffle, which are closely associated with Michael Jackson’s dancing style. Through this performance, he showed how much the pop icon has influenced his own approach to dance. Sharing the video, he wrote, “He taught me everything I know about movement. About presence. About what it means to give a stage everything you have,”
Along with the video, Tiger also tagged the upcoming film based on Michael Jackson’s life. The film, titled Michael, will focus on the early years of the singer’s career. It will show his time with the Jackson 5 in the 1960s and his rise as a solo artist. In the film, Michael Jackson will be played by his nephew Jaafar Jackson. The cast also includes Nia Long, Laura Harrier, Miles Teller, and Colman Domingo. The film is set to release on April 24.
Tiger Shroff began his acting career with Heropanti in 2014. He later became known for action films such as Baaghi, Baaghi 2, and War. While some of his recent films did not perform well, he continues to be recognised for his dance skills and fitness.
His latest film is Baaghi 4, directed by A. Harsha. The film also features Sanjay Dutt, Harnaaz Sandhu, and Sonam Bajwa. It is part of the Baaghi series and is inspired by the 2013 Tamil film Ainthu Ainthu Ainthu.
