  • Both the films released on Friday.
  • "How do I react to this so-called competition between the father and son? I feel sorry for my father that his film is releasing the same day as his son's film," said Tiger.
  • So would Tiger be watching his screen debut with his secret South Mumbai girlfriend that a section of the press has written about?
  • Tiger laughed and said, "I wish there was one. But there is no girlfriend from South, North or Central Mumbai. Or any part of the world."
  • Meanwhile, Tiger is really excited about adopting a real tiger from the Nagpur zoo.
  • "I adopted a tiger for two reasons. It is my favourite animal. But more importantly tiger is facing extinction."
  • Tiger says he wants to use his potential stardom to help the less privileged.
  • "Whatever little clout I gain through my career, I'd like to use it to help as many lives as I can. I truly believe that power and responsibility go together," he said.
