His chocolate boy looks are his passport to fame. But make no mistake. Jimmy Shergill isn`t what his appearance suggests. He is, in fact, quite a tough rookie."I refuse to follow the rules of the industry," is how he describes his laid back attitude.
Cynics have had a field day running him down after his second coming in the Yashraj Films` Mohabbatein and the Tanujaa Chandra directed film Yeh Zindagi Ka Safar failed to resurrect his career.But the actor is oblivious to this harsh criticism.
