Vidyut Jammwal On Tiger Shroff's Mental State
During his conversation with Ranveer Allahbadia, Vidyut discussed how the firing incident might have affected Tiger's confidence and routine. He suggested that the actor could find it difficult to return to activities such as playing football or sharing fitness videos on social media, particularly because of how people might react.
Vidyut said, "I can imagine the pressure you have. With you, the experience you have gone through will limit you from playing football; you might not be posting a lot of fitness videos, thinking people might make fun of you, or not posting your kicking videos, and that could be the reason for his ageing. This is the time when he can decide if he wants to become the fittest version of himself or become better than that. He is happy, stressed for sure."

The actor also recalled telling Tiger that his experience was something very few people could relate to. Vidyut drew a comparison with the kind of situations encountered by Army personnel while describing the impact of witnessing someone firing a gun at close range.
He said, "I was telling him that there would be nobody in the world who could say, 'I have seen a shooter shoot in front of my face.' This happens in the Army."

Vidyut further emphasised that Tiger's experience should not be treated as an ordinary incident. He said that people could not fully understand what the actor had gone through or decide how he should respond to it. Explaining why Tiger's stress was understandable, Vidyut added, "I told Tiger that he has to be stressed because there has been an attempt to murder him, so it cannot be a normal experience. So, he is good and trying his best to get out of this."
