After Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone who are shining in Hollywood, another Bollywood actor is all set to mark his debut soon. He is none other Tiger Shroff who is in talks for an action film with Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee's daughter Shannon Lee.
As per the reports, producer Lawrence Kasanoff visited Mumbai recently to meet Tiger Shroff and discussed the upcoming project. It is said that the Tiger was recommended by Gulshan Grover's son Sanjay Grover. "Larry shared the script of his film with Sanjay who suggested they bring on board a fresh new face to play the lead and strongly recommended his childhood buddy Tiger with whom he had studied in school, to play the lead. Larry and his team were impressed with Tiger who they felt has an international look, is trained in martial arts, has a large fan following and has age on his side. Along with Larry, a big studio head, some of their associates and Emmy Award-winning writer Sean Catherine Derek of the Batman series had also flown to India. Sanjay Grover, who has been a part of the project for the last one year, was also present at the meetings,' revealed the sources.
This could be the biggest break for an Indian actor to star in a big budget Hollywood film. Casting an Indian actor in the main lead in a Hollywood film is first for Larry. Let's see how far the 'Baaghi 2' star can spell his magic on Hollywood audience
