Jackie Shroff Unveils ‘Green Manifesto’ Calling for Small Urban Jungles Everywhere

He turns his signature of gifting plants into a public appeal to grow greenery on every balcony, rooftop and street.

Overview

In fresh interviews, Shroff urges, “Har gali, har chhat, har balcony mein bas ek chhota jungle ugana hai.”
He recommends replacing disposable or screen-linked presents with seeds or saplings for occasions such as birthdays or housewarmings.
He argues that tending plants fosters patience and empathy in children and offers cleaner air and calmer homes for families.
The push builds on years of him arriving at events with potted plants, which he describes as a personal practice rather than a publicity act.
Recent coverage also notes his brand tie-in as Ugaoo’s ambassador, signaling a more organized phase of his advocacy.
