Mumbai: Bollywood action star Tiger Shroff has revealed that he usually has "stage fright", and shared an incident when it was scarier as he had to perform in front of superstar Akshay Kumar.
Tiger shared a throwback clip of himself on his official Instagram account, where he can be seen making two flips and then attempting a flying kick. Akshay is seen cheering him on.
"Usually have stage fright, and this particular day was even scarier when our legendary action hero @akshaykumar sir asked me to show a couple of kicks to the audience at his tournament. Just glad I didn't mess up #pressure #throwback," Tiger captioned the clip.

The young actor recently posted a throwback picture of himself from the time he did not have facial hair on Instagram. In the image, a shirtless Tiger is seen lying down, flaunting his well-chiselled built and sporting maroon shorts.
Tiger, who has carved a niche for himself with his action scenes and dancing, told PTI in an interview last year that he loved to be known as an 'action hero' as it made him stand out from his peers.
"The fact that people stereotype me as an action hero, I love it. That tag... it’s such a blessing. There’s so much competition so how does one stand out? What do you do differently to segregate yourself from people? You need an identity. We all actors work too hard to create that niche and identity for ourselves," he said.
Tiger was last seen on screen in Baaghi 3 directed by Ahmed Khan. The third instalment of the Baaghi franchise opened to good collections before being discontinued owing to the lockdown.
