Amitabh Bachchan recently shut down a troll who had criticized Abhishek Bachchan for speaking in English. The person told him that he should speak only in Hindi as they didn't understand the language.
The veteran actor addressed the comment after resharing a video of Abhishek speaking in English. Big B reshared the video of his son and praised his performance in "I Want To Talk."
An X user wrote, "Sir ji Hindi me bolne ko kaho Jr Bachchan ji ko. English hamari samaj me barobar nahi aati sirji." (Sir please ask Jr Bachchan to speak in Hindi. I don't fully understand English, sir)." In turn, Amitabh gave a befitting reply, "Wow! What a viewpoint you have! Amazing! You tell him to speak in Hindi, but you write in English!"
The 'Sholay' actor wrote an appreciation note for his son Abhishek's performance in his latest film, "I Want To Talk.
Amitabh wrote, "Profound and filled with merit. your humanity and your departure from any vanity as an actor in I Want To Talk, is what makes you superior. With God's grace, the blessings of Grandpa and Grandma, and the love and affection of the entire family, always! Goodness brings good results! And you are very good."
The 'Kalki 2898 AD' actor has been busy promoting Abhishek's new movie across all his social media handles. The proud father went so far as to write a sweet blog post full of admiration, saying, "I smile today and with pride and great emotion for the Son and my Abhishek for his work. assiduous, tremendous joy."
In the post, Amitabh spoke of the importance of being different and 'being one's self.'
An excerpt from his post read, "Ultimately, being different appeals because it challenges the status quo, fosters innovation, and creates connections. It's not just about standing out but about making an impactful difference in the world. You shall be, Abhishek, because of who you are and who you have been—a creative mind that has ever attempted and succeeded in what you created and believed in your work. Love to you, Abhishek. WAGTFTW."
Directed by Shoojit Sircar, "I Want To Talk" was released on November 22.
