Jimmy Shergill, a Sikh by birth and born Jasjit Singh Gill, spoke about the "mistakes" he made that caused his parents to stop communicating with him for a year and a half. The actor also talked about how he wanted to accomplish much more after being viewed as the "chocolate boy."
In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Jimmy said that his parents were upset after he cut his hair as a Sikh. ¡°You are a kid, you make mistakes, even I made a few mistakes. Someone brought it up and it went on a little too far,¡± he said. ¡°Maybe it was destiny, and it works more than your plans. At that time, I could not even think that I would land in this industry but maybe it was written. You call it a mistake, an incident, or an accident, things happened, and I landed here,¡± he added.
Jimmy claimed in the same interview that he wanted to move on since he realized that the same types of parts wouldn't benefit him in the long run.
?¡°After working a lot for the first two years, I returned the signing amount to a lot of people because I wanted to do something different. Because this chocolate boy thing was a little too much at the time. Everybody would say ¡®why? This is amazing¡¯ and I would say ¡®no, there is something inside me telling me that this won¡¯t last for more than 2-3 years¡¯. So I knew that I needed to look for¡ that¡¯s where films like Munna Bhai, Haasil, Yahaan, these films came to me,¡± said the actor.
Jimmy took a bold step and ventured into the OTT Space in 2023, following years of delivering us some hits and becoming the ¡®crush of 90s girls¡¯. He starred in the Netflix show Choona and he was highly praised for it too!
