Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 8 (ANI): Amidst the buzz around Anupam Kher's directorial debut, 'Tanvi The Great', the legendary actor has left the fans intrigued by introducing Jackie Shroff as Brigadier Joshi in the film.
Calling Jackie his "brother", he shared his first look poster and wrote a long note, "ACTORS of TANVI THE GREAT: My friend #JackieShroff is actually my brother from another mother. We have not only worked together in so many movies, we are also related."
He also shared that his wife is tying rakhi to him, "Not many know that his wife Ayesha Shroff has been tying Rakhi to me for more than 30years. Jackie has a golden heart. 'Love' can be his second name."
Kher added, "He has so much of it in him. One day he dropped in at my place. I was yet to cast my film #TanviTheGreat! But I had recorded few songs. I made him listen to them. He was quiet for a long time after listening to them. Then he hugged me and said. Don't make this film without me. Brig. Joshi like any Indian army officer is larger than life. Strong, decisive and yet compassionate. His portrayal will be remembered for years! Thank you Shroff for your selfless friendship and brilliant acting. You are a piller of my strength. Both, on and off screen! Jai Hind!..."
