Amitabh Bachchan's Message For Abhishek Grabs Attention: 'Never Give Up, Fight Till End'
Amitabh Bachchan took to his blog on Friday and penned down a motivating note as Abhishek marks 25 years in Bollywood. Amitabh Bachchan often cheers for his son, actor Abhishek Bachchan. As the latter marks 25 years in the film industry, Big B took to his blog on Friday and penned down a motivating note. Amitabh praised his son and mentioned that he has always compared himself with himself, a trait that not many people possess. 'The essence of life is NEVER GIVE till the very end .. you may win you may lose .. BUT AT LEAST YOU FOUGHT… (sic)," Amitabh wrote and then added, 'The 'pluckiest' .. (the trait of showing courage and determination) loser has more respect than the 'so called winner ' .. for the pluckiest loser always shall be remembered by – 'he fought and almost WON' That has a greater sense of success than the more monetary guideline of commercial success ..(sic)." Big B mentioned that completing 25 years in the Hindi film industry is a big accomplishment and further wrote, '25 years !! that is no mean feat .. comparisons with others is a weakness .. the results speak more than any other 'ness' .. You Abhishek have ever and ALWAYS compared yourself with yourself .. not many can do that ..(sic)." 'And each day I learn more and more and more .. They tell me you have done enough sit back and relax .. NO .. sitting back is a defeat of life – you are giving up .. and one should NEVER GIVE UP!! (sic)," he continued. Amitabh then reminded that even though life is full of challenges, setbacks and failures, 'each fall is a lesson". 'History honours those who kept going despite the odds. When the path seems blocked, determination finds a new way. Courage lies not in never failing, but in rising each time we fall. Believe in yourself, keep striving, and remember—greatness begins with not giving up," he wrote. Abhishek Bachchan made his acting debut in 2000 with the movie Refugee. Directed by J. P. Dutta, the film also marked the debut of Kareena Kapoor Khan. Most recently, Abhishek was seen in I Want To Talk and Housefull 5.

'My parents will be proud of anything I do, as long as...', says Abhishek Bachchan about Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan: 'I'm their child, they're allowed to...'
Abhishek Bachchan has been in the movies for 25 years now but in the last few years, his choices have gained a lot of appreciation - be it 'I Want To Talk' or his recent release 'Kaalidhar Laapata'. Amidst these, he was seen doing a 'Housefull 5'. During a recent rendezvous with ETimes, as Abhishek spoke about his journey, when we asked him what his parents feel about him at this point in time, here's what the 'Guru' actor said. For those not in the know, Big B had written on his blog, "...and there is immense admiration for Abhishek. 'Mere bete, bete hone se mere uttaradhikari nahi honge; jo mere uttaradhikari honge woh mere bete honge (My sons, just because you are my sons, shall not be my inheritors ... they that shall be my inheritors, shall be my sons)' – Harivansh Rai Bachchan." When asked that his parents are really proud of him as his father says this, Abhishek reacted, "I think my father and mother would be proud of anything that I do, provided they know that I've given it my best. People forget he's also a father. For us, Amitabh Bachchan is a hero. So, we never look at it from that lens, but he's also a family man! He's a father, he's a grandfather. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: One simple trick to get internet without a subscription Techno Mag Learn More Undo For some reason we think, 'Oh no, he's not allowed to be that or be human', but he is. He's also a father, and my mother is also a mother. I'm their child. They're allowed to feel the way every other parent would feel." During the chat, Abhishek also spoke about how he deals with fame because he's seen that in his family. He said, "Fame is transient. I grew up with examples at home. When my father came home, he wasn't Amitabh Bachchan, he was my father. Fame aayega, jayega and you realise it with a couple of films."

Abhishek Bachchan says daughter Aaradhya is turning into a wonderful lady because of wife Aishwarya Rai: ‘She does the heavy lifting…'
Abhishek Bachchan is currently on a promotional spree. He has been promoting his film Kaalidhar Laapata that released on Zee 5 on July 4. Apart from talking about the film, he has been giving a lot of insights about his family, daughter Aaradhya and wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan that every fan is interested in knowing. In a recent interview, the I Want To Talk star revealed that his daughter does not have a phone and is not on any social media and gave all the credit to his beautiful wife. Abhishek Bachchan gives credit to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan for raising Aaradhya Bachchan Talking to Nayandeep Rakshit on his YouTube channel, Abhishek Bachchan was asked about the challenges they face in raising a child in today's day and time. He was asked whether Aaradhya Bachchan had a reckoning of the fame her parents or grandparents enjoy. The Sarkar actor instantly replied that he had never really spoken to her daughter about this, but he believed that she has grown up now and understands everything. He further added that the credit for this entirely goes to her mother, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Talking about his privilege, he spoke, 'I have the liberty, I get to go out and make my movie, and Aishwarya does the heavy lifting with Aaradhya, and she is amazing and selfless. Which I find amazing.' He confessed that fathers do not have the ability to be as giving as mothers because they are wired in a different way. They cannot prioritise their child as the top priority, and this is a gift that only mothers possess, said Junior Bachchan. Abhishek Bachchan on Aaradhya being the pride of the family Elaborating on how it still stands true for him at 49, Abhishek said, 'My mom is 76, I'm 49 and that's your comfort for every child. And no matter how old you are, to your mother, you are always going to be a baby.' Bachchan further revealed that daughter Aaradhya is not on any social media and does not have a phone also. 'She is turning up to be a wonderful little lady. She is the pride and joy of the family, and ya, we are blessed,' concluded the Kaalidhar Laapata star.

Why was Abhishek Bachchan ‘destroyed' because of Amitabh Bachchan after Sarkar's test shoot? Actor shares chilling details
Abhishek Bachchan is one of the finest actors in the Bollywood industry. He has given us some remarkable performances over the years. We have often seen his dad and megastar Amitabh Bachchan praise his son for his roles. However, do you know that there was a time on the sets of Sarkar when Big B was upset with his dialogue delivery, and his intense look 'destroyed' the Dhoom star. Abhishek Bachchan recalls panicking and sweating Talking to The Hollywood Reporter, Abhishek Bachchan recalled his first day on the sets of Sarkar. This was also the first time he was shooting with his dad, Amitabh Bachchan. The I Want To Talk actor revealed that director Ram Gopal Varma had told them they would conduct some test shoots beforehand. He was also shooting for Bunty Aur Babli at that time, and the director told him that he could return to that set after the test shoot for Sarkar was completed. On the first day, Abhishek recalled panicking and sweating. Describing the scene they had to do, Big B's son revealed that his father would just say 'Shankar' and all he had to do was turn and say 'Ji?' "I was petrified, I was literally shaking. He has that effect." What happened between Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan on their ride back home? Abhishek Bachchan further added that he waited in his vanity van for a while after the shoot was over so that he wouldn't have to go back home with his dad. But things did not go as planned. Amitabh Bachchan knocked on his vanity door and suggested that they go home together. Later, describing how that ride turned out to be, Junior Bachchan narrated that there was pin-drop silence the entire time. "When they pulled into their bungalow's driveway, the staff got out, leaving the two of them alone in the car. He's just sitting there, and then, in 48 frames, he turned to me. 'Isiliye maine itne saal mehnat karke tumhe padhaya likhaya? Dialogue bolna aata nahi hai tumhe." (That's why I worked hard for so many years to educate you? You don't know how to speak dialogues.) The Dhoom star expressed that he felt like he had murdered someone. He concluded by saying, "The way he looked at me. He just destroyed me." We can only imagine what must have gone through Abhishek Bachchan after this car ride with his dad. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more such updates.
