Jimmy Shergil’s Father Passed Away
Throughout his life, Jimmy shared a close bond with his father. However, a pivotal moment in his life almost caused a rift between them. In an interview with one of the media houses, Jimmy candidly spoke about a period of estrangement with his family due to his actions in his youth. Let us tell you that Jimmy Shergill’s decision to remove his turban had a profound effect on his relationship with his father.

However, during his time in a hostel, the constant maintenance of his turban became a burden. In an act of rebellion, Jimmy cut his hair and shaved his beard without informing his family. This led to a painful separation, as his father, Satyajit, did not speak to him for nearly a year and a half. Despite this turmoil, Jimmy has always credited his father for shaping his identity and values. Over time, the father-son relationship healed, and the actor has spoken with deep respect and affection about his father’s influence on his life.
