Jackie Shroff’s Simple Tip For A Happier Home: Get More Plants

MUMBAI -Veteran Bollywood star Jackie Shroff, who calls himself a green crusader, has spoken about how plants can lead to a calmer mind and happier vibes.

In a conversation about the current climate crisis and how he believes individuals can contribute, Jackie told the media, “Start gifting plants. Birthday, Rakhi, new job, new home—skip the plastic and perishable stuff. Give something that grows… Give a child a seed, they’ll water it, watch it sprout, and that joy will stick for life.”

“Fill your home with plants, and you’ll get cleaner air, a calmer mind, and happier vibes,” said the actor, who is the brand ambassador of Ugaoo.

When asked why it’s crucial for people, especially urban dwellers, to stay connected to nature in today’s concrete jungles, he said: “To all the young Bhidus out there, let me tell you something: planting a tree isn’t a favor to the world, it’s a favor to yourself, your family, and your planet. Gardening is for anyone, anywhere.”

He added: “One little plant, and you’ll get peace, health, and a home that feels alive. So, plant more, love more, grow more.”

On the acting front, Jackie’s latest role is as the antagonist, ‘The Salesman’, in the second season of the action-packed drama ‘Hunter 2’. (IANS)
