Career
= Initial work =
Jackie Shroff dropped out of school after his 11th standard as his family did not have much money. He tried his hand working as an apprentice chef at Taj Hotels and as a flight attendant at Air India, but he was rejected from both places because of his lack of qualifications. He then started working as a travel agent in a local company called Trade Wings near Jehangir Art Gallery. An advertising agency accountant spotted him at the bus stand and asked him if he would be interested in modelling. The next day, Shroff went to the advertising agency (National advertising agency) located in the same building as Davar's college near Flora Fountain for the photo shoot during his lunch time. This photo shoot for a suit shirt launched Shroff on his modelling path.{{cite web |title=Jackie Shroff profile |url=http://jackieshroff.in/biography.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150904073902/http://www.jackieshroff.in/biography.html |archive-date=4 September 2015 |access-date=29 August 2015 |work=Jackieshroff.in}} Aasha K Chandra, who was running an acting school, asked Shroff to join her class. Initially, Shroff refused, but after she said that Dev Anand's son Suneil Anand is also attending her class, Shroff enrolled there. Suneil Anand introduced Shroff to his father, Dev Anand, who gave Shroff his first acting role.
