Jackie Shroff has created a niche for himself in the Bollywood industry, owing to his bhidu style personality. He is fondly called Jaggu dada and despite the demure he presents, he is one hopelessly romantic person, who values his family above all. This is what had made Ayesha Shroff fall in love with him when she was 13 years old only.

Ayesha was hanging from her school bus when Jackie had seen her for the first time. Later, he had casually introduced himself and had told her that he plays with his friends nearby, and the rest is history. On June 5, 1987, Jackie and Ayesha had tied the knot.
