'I Am A Carbon Copy Of My Mother' Says Abhishek Bachchan
According to director R Balki, Abhishek's distinctiveness as Amitabh Bachchan's son is virtually impossible to explain. According to the filmmaker, Abhishek is intense, yet with a grin, he's a really natural, genuine, and easy performer.
Since his debut in the year 2000 with 'Refugee,' Abhishek Bachchan has been often compared to his father, the iconic Amitabh Bachchan. While Abhishek regards being in the same league as Big B as a wonderful praise, a director who has worked with both of them thinks they're vastly different as performers.
In a recent interview for 'Ghoomer,' R Balki, Saiyami Kher, and Abhishek spoke at length about their film and much more. Big B is R Balki's lucky charm, as he's admitted many times, but the filmmaker believes that after working with this father-son combination, they're not the same. "I think Abhishek is very distinct," Balki stated. Being Amitabh Bachchan's kid and being so unlike to him is nearly impossible. Abhishek is a very modern individual with a distinct personality. There's ferocity, yet it's tempered with a smile. I've only seen a few actors like him. He has a particular tone of voice, and I have yet to find a term for it, just as I have yet to find a word for Amitabh Bachchan's stoneofvoice."
"I think I'm more like my mother than my father," Abhishek stated in response. My personal style and everything." Balki continued, "He's very natural, very candid, and very easy."
When told that he resembles his mother, Abhishek said, "Yeah, yeah, I only resemble my mother." "I'm an exact replica of my mother."
Abhishek Bachchan plays a cricket coach in his upcoming film, 'Ghoomer,' which also stars Saiyami Kher. His mother, legendary actress Jaya Bachchan, made her movie debut in Karan Johar's 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani'. When asked to comment on her performance in the film, Abhishek told IndiaToday.in that it was tough for him to rate her.
