During a recent interview, Ahmed was asked about the criticism Tiger has received in the past few years. To this, he said, “Usually, people say, ‘You have to work hard, but for Tiger you have to say, ‘Mehnat mat kar!’ Now what advice would you give him? He comes on time, he has got no problem on sets, he will do whatever you ask him to. Ek actor ko kya chahiye? Does he have a body? Yes. Looks? Yes. Can he dance? Yes. Can he do action? Yes. Acting? Usko kaunsi Ardh Satya karni hai, ya Garam Masala jaisi art film karni hai (He doesn’t have to do art films such as Ardh Satya or Garam Masala.”

“He does commercial films. This is what is called learning. Every hero has gone through this journey, and everyone learns this way. He will bounce back next year, because this is a phase every actor goes through, there’s no reason to panic. Tiger Shroff is just one turn away,” Ahmed added.
He also spoke about Heropanti 2 failure, and the run of Baaghi 3 getting cut short because of Covid-19 pandemic. Ahmed shared that “Tiger was broken because we had worked extremely hard”.
