In a heartfelt episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati, Abhishek Bachchan joined his father, Amitabh Bachchan, and director Shoojit Sircar to promote their upcoming film, I Want To Talk. During the conversation, Abhishek opened up about his experiences as a father and the emotional connection he shares with his 13-year-old daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan.
The film, in which Abhishek portrays Arjun Sen, a man with only 100 days to live, deeply resonated with him. “Arjun’s promise to his daughter to fight through everything and be there for her is a sentiment every father understands. It’s about that unwavering commitment,” Abhishek shared.
Abhishek also reflected on the shared experience of being a “girl dad” alongside Amitabh and Shoojit Sircar. “Dad has Shweta Di, I have Aaradhya, and Shoojit da has two daughters. We understand the depth of this bond,” he said, adding that the role made him even more appreciative of fatherhood.
This candid discussion follows Aaradhya’s recent birthday celebrations, which were led by her mother, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Aishwarya’s emotional tributes to Aaradhya coincided with the anniversary of her late father’s passing, making the occasion bittersweet. However, Abhishek’s absence from the celebrations fueled speculation about their marriage.
Adding to the rumours were separate arrivals at high-profile events like Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding and Abhishek’s social media activity, where he liked a post about “grey divorces.” His chemistry with co-star Nimrat Kaur during the Dasvi promotions has also caught attention.
Amid these speculations, Amitabh Bachchan addressed the matter in a cryptic blog post, urging restraint in spreading unverified information. He highlighted the emotional toll such rumours take on families and reinforced the importance of privacy.
While neither Abhishek nor Aishwarya has commented on their relationship, Abhishek’s appearance on Kaun Banega Crorepati emphasized his role as a loving father and professional actor, committed to his family and craft. Fans are eagerly awaiting I Want To Talk, which promises to be an emotionally charged exploration of life, family, and resilience.
