When Jackie Shroff spoke about receiving a Filmfare award for 'Parinda' with Tiger Shroff sleeping in his arms!

Jackie Shroff and Anil Kapoor starrer 'Parinda' remains one of the most cult movies of all times. The 1989 film also starred Nana Patekar in a negative role. While Patekar had won a national award for the 'Best Actor In A Supporting Role' category, Jackie Shroff won the Filmfare Best Actor award for the film.

However, it was quite a surprise for Jackie. The actor had not won any award before 'Parinda' and hence wasn't expecting one, even this time. In an interview with television show, 'Yaadon Ki Baraat', Jackie recalled that he was so shocked. "Tiger’s mother had fed him and gave him to me in my arms and he was asleep. I knew I wouldn’t get the award and suddenly, they announced my name. I was so shocked that I went up on the stage with Tiger in my arms.”

Jackie and Anil had shared screen space in several movies like 'Parinda' and 'Ram Lakhan' during that era. During another interview to celebrate 30 years of the film, Shroff had shared the experience of a scene where he slapped Anil 17 times. The actor had said, "He wanted to express that his elder brother had slapped him. The first shot was okayed by the director and he got the right expression as well. But he said – no I want one more. I slapped him. He again said one more. I slapped him 17 times for the scene. I couldn’t just act as if I was slapping him. I had to slap him as one couldn’t get his reaction if you slapped him in the air."

'Parinda' also stars Madhuri Dixit and is also often remembered for its iconic song, 'Tumse Milke' picturised on the actress with Anil.
