Amitabh Bachchan stood up for his son, Abhishek Bachchan, over the long-running nepotism debate. On Wednesday, he backed a social media post that claimed Abhishek was unfairly targeted.
A Bollywood news portal shared a video of Abhishek at a promotional event. The caption stated that he faced nepotism backlash despite having several good films in his career.
Amitabh, 82, reshared the post and wrote, ‘I feel the same .. and not just because I am his Father.’ His tweet quickly gained attention from fans and supporters.
The veteran actor often uses social media to promote Abhishek’s work. The father-son duo has worked together in films like ‘Bunty Aur Babli’ and ‘Sarkar.’
Abhishek, 49, has faced criticism over his career despite notable performances. Yet, he continues to take on diverse roles in Bollywood.
Up next, he will appear in Prime Video’s ‘Be Happy.’ His last film was ‘I Want To Talk,’ directed by Shoojit Sircar.
