In an insightful conversation with Instant Bollywood, Abhishek Bachchan candidly spoke about the filmic returns of his wife, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and mother, Jaya Bachchan. Aishwarya’s stellar performance in Mani Ratnam’s ‘Ponniyin Selvan’ franchise marks her successful re-entry, whereas Jaya Bachchan has been cast in a significant role in Karan Johar’s ‘Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani’. The younger Bachchan felt a surge of emotions discussing his family’s return to films, saying, “With my father, I see him as an actor, but with Maa (Jaya), it’s different.” He expressed anticipation for the cinematic contributions both Aishwarya and Jaya are poised to make, given their already profound legacies.
Shifting focus to his professional front, Abhishek Bachchan is gearing up for the much-anticipated R Balki directorial, ‘Ghoomer’, set to release on August 18, 2023. With a star-studded ensemble featuring Amitabh Bachchan, Shabana Azmi, Saiyami Kher, and Angad Bedi, it’s bound to be a cinematic delight. Adding to the buzz, speculations suggest Abhishek collaborating with esteemed director Shoojit Sircar for a yet-to-be-titled project.
