I'm driven by insecurity: Tiger Shroff

Insecurity drives Tiger Shroff to constantly seek approval and appreciation, says the actor who has clocked five years in the film industry.

Many in the acting field say the profession comes with a set of insecurities. Tiger, son of veteran actor Jackie Shroff, agrees.

"That is true. I am so insecure. But I am driven by my insecurities to constantly seek approval and appreciation... How am I going to... 'Is my dad going to like it (my work)?', 'Are my fans going to appreciate my work?' While doing a film with Hrithik Roshan sir, (I think) 'I hope he is impressed'... He is my hero and I look up to him and I hope that I am not letting him down or slowing him down," Tiger told IANS.

This, he said, was a constant process for him.

"I think it is natural, and there's not much you can do to black that out," he added.
