Krishna Shroff: I've learnt from Dad that it's not what you have but how you carry yourself with nothing that defines your strength
Krishna Shroff with her father Jackie Shroff Although Krishna Shroff comes from a place of privilege, she's always been aware of life with limited means, thanks to the stories she grew up hearing from her father, Bollywood actor Jackie Shroff . That grounding, she believes, will help her navigate the upcoming reality show Chhoriyan Chali Gaon, where luxury takes a backseat and resilience is key. When the offer for the show came her way, she instinctively turned to her parents. In a conversation with Mumbai Mirror, she shares, 'My dad especially was incredibly supportive. He has really lived that life and continues to lead a genuinely simple lifestyle. He is a minimalist, and he believes this experience will be a huge learning curve for me. He knows it will help me grow as a person and was the one who truly pushed me to go for it. ' Jackie Shroff has often spoken openly about his humble beginnings, growing up in a chawl, sharing a common bathroom, and never letting fame disconnect him from those roots. That upbringing continues to influence Krishna's values. She says, 'He always proudly says he is from Teen Batti, and if he could, he would still live there. Even after the success of Hero (1983), when he and my mom got married, there was just one bathroom in the entire society. They would still wait in line. That kind of humility has shaped the values my brother Tiger and I hold today. The biggest thing I have learnt from Dad is adaptability. He can adjust to any environment and connect with people from all walks of life. That is something I admire deeply and hope to carry with me into the show.' As she prepares to swap comfort for bare necessities, Krishna feels mentally ready. 'My dad's story is the definition of resilience, and it has been a compass for me in so many ways. He grew up in a chawl, faced rejection, had nothing handed to him, yet he walked through it all with grace and humility. He has shown me that it is not what you have, but how you carry yourself when you have nothing, that defines your strength. That is the energy I am taking with me into Chhoriyan Chali Gaon. '
