What Jackie Shroff says on playing Salman Khan’s father in Bharat ?

Salman Khan’s Bharat has a strong father-son track. Jackie Shroff, 62, roped for the role of Salman’s father in Bharat, may be barely nine years older than the superstar, he insists he had no qualms playing father to Khan.

“I am aware that the age gap is only 10 years. We started our careers almost around the same time, but I don’t have any problem playing his father. I have always treated Salman like my bachcha. Even today, he is like a kid to me,” says Jackie, who has worked with him in several films, including Veer (2010) and Kahin Pyaar Na Ho Jaaye (2000).

“I played Kareena Kapoor’s father in Yaadein in 2001, and a few years back, I did it with Aamir [Khan] in Dhoom 3 (2013). If the character is good and I am convinced about it, other factors don’t matter to me,” Jackie says.
