While she is active on social media with her selfies, posts and pictures with some of her favourites, in reality, Disha Patani is quite an introvert. And, when it comes to talking about her love life, the Malang actress remains tight-lipped. Over the years, she has never spoken openly about her equation with Tiger Shroff, but the fact that she’s really fond of some members of the Shroff family, is known to all. She often posts cool pictures with Tiger’s sister Krishna on social media.

Before the Coronavirus lockdown was announced, Disha was shooting for Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai, starring Salman Khan and Jackie Shroff, among others. Talking about Senior Shroff, she says, “His energy is unmatchable.” All praises for Jackie, who loves being called Tiger ka baap, she continues, “Nobody can match up to his swag. He is humble, easy to work with, quick with his shots and a great actor.”

The actress says that though she is shy and an introvert, in Jackie Shroff’s company, she feels cool. “He is just so cool to hang out with. I don’t consider myself cool at all, but whenever I hang out with him, I feel cool. It doesn’t matter if you are an introvert, because when you are with him, he does most of the talking,” she shares.

Disha is working with actors across age groups, but she admits that it is the senior actors who make her feel more comfortable. She says, “I think I am more of an old soul. I feel comfortable with senior people around me, and I connect more with them.”
