Jackie Shroff has been a Bollywood mainstay for four decades, appearing in well over two hundred films. Born in Mumbai in 1957, he shot to stardom as the brooding lead of 'Hero' (1983), then delivered career-defining work in the gangster classic 'Parinda' (1989) and Ram Gopal Varma's 'Rangeela' (1995). Later he aged gracefully into character roles: the loyal Chunnilal of 'Devdas' (2002), the villain of 'Dhoom 3' (2013) and the antagonist of the Tamil blockbuster 'Jailer' (2023). Affectionately known as Jaggu Dada, he embodies a relaxed, street-smart cool that Hindi cinema keeps returning to.
