Jackie Shroff once lived in a 10X10 room in Mumbai slum. One flop lost him all his money. Today, he lives in a Rs 31 crore sea-facing Mumbai home with 8 bedrooms, gym, private theatre

Following the failure of their production company Boom due to rampant piracy, Jackie and Ayesha Shroff faced a catastrophic financial crisis. Days before it was released, distributors pulled out, making it difficult for the family to pay back debts. They were forced to sell their house and possessions due to the losses, but Jackie stayed dedicated to paying off debts, upholding his moral principles, and safeguarding his family's name.
