EXCLUSIVE: Jackie Shroff reveals his ‘Green Manifesto’; "Har gali, har balcony mein chhota jungle ugana hai"

Jackie Shroff has always been more than a movie star. With his trademark scarf, streetwise charm, and decades of screen presence, he embodies a blend of old-school cool and earthy authenticity. Yet beyond the lights of Bollywood, another signature has defined him just as deeply: his unwavering bond with plants. For years, he has walked into events cradling a sapling instead of luxury gifts, turning a simple gesture into a quiet philosophy of life.

Now, his philosophy is crystal clear: nature belongs in every corner of our urban lives. “Har gali, har chhat, har balcony mein bas ek chhota jungle ugana hai,” Shroff says passionately. To him, plants aren’t decoration — they’re companions, therapists, and teachers. “They keep you patient, grounded, and connected to your roots,” he insists.

 

Unlike most celebrity endorsements, Shroff’s green message feels personal. He isn’t “acting” when he’s around plants. “No acting stress, just me doing what I love — being around plants and sharing that joy,” he recalls of a recent campaign shoot.

 

With climate change looming large, Shroff believes behavioural change starts small. “One little plant can bring you peace, health, and a home that looks and feels alive,” he says. For Jackie Shroff, planting a tree isn’t a favour to the world — it’s a favour to yourself, your family, and your planet.
