Abhishek Bachchan has often found himself compared with his father, legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan. In a throwback interaction with the media, the actor addressed the comparisons, saying the similarities were only natural given their family connection.
When asked whether he deliberately tried to imitate his father, Abhishek said there was little possibility of anyone being able to copy Amitabh Bachchan.
“First of all, even if somebody tried to copy him, they wouldn’t be able to. It’s a unique piece over there. As far as, if you think I’m similar to him, I am. I’m his son. I’ve got his blood running in my veins. Obviously, there will be things that I do which will be very similar to him,” he said.
Abhishek made his acting debut in 2000 opposite Kareena Kapoor with Refugee. He subsequently featured in several successful films, including Dhoom (2004), Yuva (2004), Bunty Aur Babli (2005), Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006), Guru (2007), Bol Bachchan (2012), Manmarziyaan (2018), Ludo (2020) and Dasvi (2022).
The actor is now set to appear in an important role in Shah Rukh Khan-starrer King, directed by Siddharth Anand. The makers announced in January that the film will hit theatres on December 24, 2026.
Produced by Gauri Khan, Siddharth Anand and Mamta Anand under Red Chillies Entertainment and Marflix Pictures, King features Shah Rukh Khan, Suhana Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff and Arshad Warsi in key roles.
