**Strained Relationship Over Tradition**
In a candid interview with *The Times of India*, Jimmy Shergill opened up about the strained relationship he shared with his father during his teenage years. Jimmy revealed that he wore a turban until the age of 18 but decided to cut his hair while staying in a hostel, citing practical difficulties in managing the turban.
He recalled, “Not just my parents, but my entire family did not talk to me properly for a year-and-a-half after that.” The decision marked a turning point in their relationship but Jimmy has since moved forward.
**Jimmy Shergill’s Recent Work**
On the professional front, Jimmy Shergill continues to be active in both films and web series. His latest Punjabi film, *Maa Jaye*, was released on August 29, 2025. In 2024, he appeared in the web series *Ranneeti: Balakot & Beyond*, available on JioHotstar, and the Netflix thriller *Sikandar Ka Muqaddar*.
Our condolences go out to Jimmy Shergill and his family during this difficult time.
