The trio talked about food, travel, success, and fears, and we got to know some interesting details about these two big stars. Amid all the fun chat, Tiger confessed one of his biggest fears to us! Read on to learn more about it!

Tiger Shroff Talks About His Aerophobia & Why He Doesn’t Travel Often

When you see Akshay Kumar or Tiger Shroff doing those kickass stunts in the movies, it’s almost unimaginable to hear them talk about their fears in their personal lives! But, in the latest episode of Sunday Brunch with Curly Tales, Tiger Shroff shared about his aerophobia and how it has made it difficult for him to travel.

When asked what his idea of ideal travel is, Tiger replied that he is actually afraid of flying in aeroplanes! He said that he used to like travelling a lot. However, Tiger developed aerophobia suddenly and has since been travelling less. Akshay, having no idea about Tiger’s fear before they began shooting, told us that Tiger actually stands throughout the flight journeys. He said that Tiger is probably “the only actor who travels standing!”

Akshay went on to reveal that Tiger only sat when they had to land and take off. Otherwise, he’ll keep standing throughout the flight out of fear! When asked what provoked this fear, Tiger revealed he happened to be on a very turbulent flight once and the experience unlocked his fear.

Being the Khiladi and fearless guy that he is, Akshay said he did try to console Tiger Shroff and talk him out of his aerophobia. To make him sit on his seat, Akshay tried to distract him with a game of ludo. He even tried encouraging him by talking and motivating him, but Tiger’s fear didn’t allow him to sit! He even jokingly said to Tiger, “Tune first class ke paise bhaare hai, baith jaa na chup kar ke!”

It’s almost impossible to imagine Tiger having aerophobia after seeing him doing all those intense and tough action scenes. Especially in his new movie Bade Miyan Chote Miyan with Akshay Kumar! Let us know your thoughts on this in the comments section!
