@@Anonymous-bf5fkbut still Salim Khan was a behind the scene kind of guy. In that case people care less abt the relationship. But Sunny Deol making a name for himself out of his father's shadow is a big thing tho...he has his own unique style of an aggressive man which was a pleasure to watch on screen!😊
Abhishek is forever burdened. He is the son of arguably the greatest movie megastar and actor on this planet. No way he was ever going to match up to that level... even the Khans can't.
Not even mentioned "Paa"? I haven’t watched Sarkar. But in Paa, the father-son duo playing son-father was really heartwarming imo. Not everyone needs to be a conventional leading man. I love how he stands by his movies. He can portray obnoxious comedy in Bol Bachchan & creepy yet funny Bob Biswas. He surely got much to offer and hopefully he gets more versatile roles in his upcoming ventures.
To be honest he really holds the potential to be an excellent actor but is often casted in senseless ventures. His ventures like breathe really show his potential as an actor. Hope he picks up good movies and series. 🙌🏻
@@TriedRefusedProductionsjammy - make one video on Dharmendra and Sunny. Some people are thinking they were not huge stars and were just few film wonders.
That's why public hate him because he got so many chances if he was outsider then he she would have vanished after 1 year but because he is Abhishek Bachchan so he got where I film after 5 years of continuous flop because he is Abhishek Bachchan his still getting work after spending 25 years in industries
I still have Guru saved on my home computer and often visit his iconic speech and "damdar" scenes for some motivation of sorts, he truly was phenomenal in that movie. Underrated Actor.

Hi, I am from Bangladesh! Dear Abhishek, you are a gem of an actor, brilliant I may say! Life is unfair! So, just do more and more work, and one day when you look back , you see those who recognized your works are still there and clap. Need to see you on screen, Man 💚
It's good that SRK's son has chosen not to become an actor. He would have faced the same fate as Abhishek Bachhan. The pressure of living up to your superstar father's legacy is just too much for anybody to cope with.
@@TriedRefusedProductionsdude suhana as it is , is bad in acting and u dont know the casting directors of mumbai. They can humiliate u ti the end for ur looks . So this suhana if was an outsider would have been casted for naukrani roles at the best. She should thank her stars that with such terrible acting and below average looks she is already the face of so many brands, movies etc
I dont think u can generalise it as a reason. If yes then why didnt ranbir kapoor face any such issue. Infact he is widely accepted as a young romantic hero - the same space which was owned by his father rishi kapoor in his times.@@TriedRefusedProductions
People just blindsided themselves with the fact of him being a starkid. Always being compared with his father when he never tried to replicate that aura. That burden failed him, that pressure failed him, the audience failed him.
I think what really hurt him was the debut and stardom of hrithik Roshan. Hrithik blew any chance of abhishek becoming a large star. Hrithik was his contemporary and more suited for superstardom. What did not help was the fact that Hrithik could also act and was a more complete package. AB Jr should have taken a page out of Aamir khan and focused on alternative cinema and performance packed roles. He needs to just focus on the actor aspect and not care about box office.
Abhishek and hrithik were launched the same year. There was huge buzz over abi's launch and the buzz around knph was less, but gained huge buzz when the songs became a craze and people saw hrithik's charm, looks and his dance. Abhishek had nothing in comparison to hrithik, when every newcomer had those looks which everyone was looking for.
his debut movie was refugee , how could have he got same craze from a movie about cross border illegal immigration pitted against romantic musical , it was always a mistake to go for mainstream cinema when your power is in inde cinema
i think hrithiks acting has been mediocre at most. Hated War, didn't like the ending and once you know the ending the whole move seemed unrealistic. Not going to watch War 2, after the mess that was Parthan and Tiger 3.
I have to agree. What people don't understand is Hritik was GROOMED SINCE HIS CHILDHOOD to become an actor. SRK, Manoj, Akshay came into industry, very lean thin, without the wealth and facilities that Hrx had.@@vicchandra5953
Abhishek Bachchan is not the superstar type actor of blockbuster movies , he's more of a character actor and should have stuck with offbeat or artsy films only where he would have made a decent career. Chasing the stereotypical Bollywood hero relentlessly, costed him his career.
Sunny Deol and Sanjay Dutt, have done really well in the industry and are really good actors and they seem to be still delivering again now, and their father's Dharamendra and Sunil Dutt were also great in their time, still remember them all in the movie Kshatriya together.
You just can't beat Big B. He's 80 something and I'm still excited to see him in Kalki! Abhishek is a great actor and he doesn't have to live in the shadows of anyone, he'll make his own way. I wish him the best in that journey.
@@RajuAhmed-sy7ys Yes, That's true for Bobby. He met the same fate as Abhishek. But, Sunny's case is different. At his prime he had a dedicated crazy fandom. That fandom and nostalgia combo helped Gadar 2 to be blockbuster else it would be a disaster if anyone else was there in place of sunny
Sunny Deol was a huge star in his prime and still is 😊.When I saw him in the 90s performing , I never got reminded of Dharmendra being his father but in the case of Abhishek I always gets his father vibes.Abhishek should have tried more in comic roles.I maybe in the minority here but I really liked his performance in the move like 10 years back where he played double roles
On screen he may not be too versatile & apt for a certain type of roles like Sarkar, Yuva, Guru etc. But off screen, looking at his social media interactions, he is one of most matured person in entire film industry & hence deserve all the respect
Agreed. Abhishek, apart from Yuva, Bunty aur Babli, Guru, Ludo (maybe I am missing a few others), has not consistently played a convincing character as far as I am concerned. In most of his attempts it feels like he is "acting" (trying hard) and NOT getting a true moment in front of the film camera as the character (as he gets during his interviews where he is himself..Abhishek playing himself is convincing).
@@kauchand Yeah, trying hard. From my observation of his movies, he is camera conscious. It's like he is never immersed in a scene completely. It's like he can't forget he is his father's son and his wife's husband. It interrupts his acting.
Abhishek was absolutely electrifying in Dhoom back in 2004. Without his stellar turn as the suave yet forthright ACP of Mumbai Police, the series wouldn't have become what it did. The face-off between him and John really worked and turned the film into my favourite of the franchise. Of his latest works, loved him in Ludo.
Unpopular opinion : He was good at his Ott debuts like Breathe, Ludo, Dasvi even in Big Bull..... He is versatile (even in latest release Ghoomer), Imagine him as a relentless, brutal villian that gonna be a GameChanger for sure
@@TriedRefusedProductionsThat's what I am been thinking since the day I watched Bhoola in theaters. Ajay Devgan vs Abhishek Bachchan battling out in violence full of revenge to each other in Bhoola 2 would have been So Outstanding and Great to Witness if everything was done good ❤✨
So because he was son of Amitabh Bacchan that's why he was so many chances like he learnt all of these in two decades if any other outsider would have been there he wouldn't even have got a single chance
HE HAS ALWAYS SAID HE WANTS T0 BECOME LIKE HIS DAD... THIS IS WHAT MADE HIM UNSUCCESSFUL... HE CANNOT BE ANOTHER AMITABH BACCHAN... HE COULD HAVE BEEN ABISHEK BACCHAN. THE ABHISHEK BACCHAN...
I think Abhishek was a little ahead of his time...the kind of natural acting he does, no doubt he'd have been a hit actor if he was launched in today's time...90's/2000's bollywood script and acting was very different...this applies to some other actors as well like Tabu for example...
Guess 2005 was the year for Abhishek. Doing great films like Bluffmaster, Bunty aur Babli and Sarkar showed his range as an actor. And maybe his peak in Hindi films
@@TriedRefusedProductionswhat kind of title is this? how dare you and how can you say a Hale and hearty man a cursed son? Just think about those parents who have disable children . Ek disable baccha bhi Apne maa baap ke liye curse Nahin hota aur Abhishek to ek Sushil aadmi hai.
You're very right. But Jayaji quit films soon after Sholay, so the newer generation doesn't have much context.. Amitabh, however, became a megastar around the same time when Jayaji quit.. and continues to enthrall everyone with his craft, till date. Jayaji is one of the greatest actresses of this country.. Koshish, Piya Ka Ghar, Mili, Guddi.. so many amazing performances! Thanks for calling her Jaya 'Bhaduri'.. that's the name we all remember in the titles of all those incredible films she did!
@shikhab2250 Jayaji has always been a big support for Amitabh ji. She did Zanjeer also because of him... Amitabh was going through a tough professional phase before that film. Zanjeer sold because of Jayaji's and Pran's names, who were established names.. and as soon as Zanjeer released, Amitabh became a superstar, and both Amit ji and Jaya ji got married. She also did Silsila because of Amitabh only.
In the 1980's 2 starsons came out of their father's larger-than-life shadows Sunny Deol and Sanjay Dutt. Sunny Deol proved in 1980's and 1990's that he is a bankable star like Dharmendra was in his heydays. Similarly, Sanjay Dutt too garnered a massive popularity in the late 1980s and 1990's and gracefully took the legacy of Sunil Dutt and Nargis to new heights. His brother-in-law Kumar Gaurav disastrous projects after his debut film, forced him to exit from the Hindi Film Industry.
Abhishek has grown into his craft. He was never main character (as in commercial hero) energy. But over the years he has been solid and found his own following outside the identity of his father. He did possess talent from the onset unlike the latest onslaught of children of stars and superstars. Abhishek also possesses a wealth of knowledge about filmmaking across Indian languages and I feel he is quite a cinephile. I am glad you picked up this topic. I want to highlight that in MPKDH with Hrithik and Kareena , Abhi was the only one who was tolerable. He excelled in capers like Bluffmaster, Bunty aur Babli and Dus and lets not forget Refugee. Refugee showed us Kareena Kapoor as a force (something I feel she rarely touches in modern age) but Abhi was perhaps hard done by expectations of his dad, and the unprecedented legendary debut of Hrithik Roshan. He has also proven his chops in Guru, Sarkar, Paa and YUva and so many more. And when compared to his peers he is miles ahead - his choices in the past 5 years is pure quality. Abhi is a character actor and I would love to see him and Shahid Kapoor in a movie together.
That's where I think an Actor like Ranbir Kapoor stood out the most he always showed his A game even in the not so successful films his acting was never Bad (Shamshera,Jagga Jasoos,Bombay Velvet) And Tamasha was the film where he became more than a Star Kid for me He was born with a golden spoon but he never took that for Granted 🔥 Truly the best in this generation 🥵
Abhishek's performance in Ludo was superb IMHO. He held on his own in a film with ensemble cast. Especially the scene where he tries his best to get his daughter's attention and breaks down when he fails in doing that. Sad to see his downfall, when it appeared that sky was the limit after his performance in Guru.
Abhishek Bacchan is carrying load of legend Amitabh Bachchan If he wasn't a nepo kid, he would have been a more successful actor. Abhishek has raised his acting bar as the time passed by. He was fabulous in Manmarziyan directed by Anuraag kashyap. He need to be offloaded from being a star son.
@@jojosoni so true, thats what I was thinking if he was not a nepo kid no matter how talented he would've flopped. He would have been like manoj bajapyee (not a flop) but less talented and relatively unknown. He wouldn't have gotten any roles for his looks and acting nor would he be able to get married to aishwarya rai. People wouldn't have cared about him, or even cared enough to criticize because he is not from bacchan legacy. He would've have simply fade awaya and forgotten. Not able to make a quite mark in industry. Even this video is only made because he became mediocre actor after being years in indistry and did not becomes a hit nepo kid, while being a Amitabh Bachans son.
He would not even make it or get so many chances if he was not a nepo kid. Would have landed up like another Akshaye Khanna at the most or probably not even got break at all
Truly appreciate the resilience of Abhisheik Bachchan! His immense maturity, his subtle wit, his clear diction and well articulated thoughts are always a pleasure to watch. I do believe his 'Guru' days will be back. I just hope he gets a more modern stylist, it will do him a world of good. Thanks for making this episode, Amol! Kudos to you for that!
What resilience? 99% indians don't get a fraction of what he got on a platter and he continues to get scripts and movies even though his report card is a D.
Abhishek has always been a mystery for me. We see him in all those movies you mentioned early in the video, and then he keeps surprising us periodically by Sarkar, Yuva, Guru, just prevents us from making a perception for him.
I have loved Abhishek in many of his films.. To name one of the recent ones, I loved him in Manmarziyaan.. I was awestruck by his performance in Yuva. I loved Delhi 6 as a movie and he was good in it, but then again it was a multi-starrer and there was a great supporting cast. However, I feel he has not done a good job with choosing scripts , which is surprising because he comes from a legendary film family.
if you think Abhishek is a well behaved person, i recommend you watch comedy nights with kapil when Abhishek came with SRK and Farah for Happy New Year.... he behaved very disrespectfully towards Nasiruddin shah's son and Boman irany
Thanks a lot for this video! Abhishek is one of my favorites in the industry and it is not highlighted enough how underated this gem of an actor is. This was overdue. BTW, I think you missed his commercial success stints - Dus and Bluffmaster - both had him in a pretty suave role for the urban audience. Oh, and Raavan - although the reviews of this movie is pretty divisive - I personally love his madness-driven acting here! And also, a little more low-key - Paa - although it belongs to papa-Bachchan, his sincere portrayal of a new-age politician was solid. And with his next being Shoojit Sircar's next movie - I am very happy that the actor is getting to do the roles that matter with his recent shift of role choices, even if they are not commerically viable.
Did i miss reference to one of my favorite movies of his - bluffmaster and his rapping chops! I believe he would have made a good career if he has explored more of it!
@@bambi274 Abhishek got so many chances for being a nepo kid. Even government financed his movies when producers were not willing to but the thing is the fate of the star is decided every Friday inside over 5000 dark theaters around the world. Abhishek ain't got it. His facial features and body language is not for big screen bollywood star
@@sabrinakhan8217so agree. Initially, it was about his father. But then you forget the parents. I don’t think of Rishi every time we watch Ranbir. This video is basically saying we have shot down a star. Rather, Abhishek has gotten accolades because of his father even when he didn’t deserve it. He is a so so actor.
I loved him in Sarkar , can’t imagine anytime else in that role.. he nailed it. Nobody hates him, i think it’s just his choice of movies. I really wish he shines and chooses right movies going forward. He is a really good actor
Sunny was wise enough to pick roles that suited him. His forte was action with the occasional dramatic characters. He didn't try to be the boy next door like his brother Bobby did often in his career
Avishek Bacchan is a brilliant actor....his performance in YUWA was outstanding ..so was in Sarkaar and Ravaan....but he was not the typical "dancing god with flying kicks and abs" archtype
Right now, Abhishek is slowly getting back to playing well written characters in films that have good, if not great. Ludo and Mammarziyaan were too special ❤️
You forgot to mention his acting skills in ,,breathe,,he is an awesome actor.have loved, admired ,adored him since refugee days..he has a lot of potential and the fact that he wants to make his own space ,and not takeover his fathers makes him unique, love u bro,
Abhishek needs to work with Sandeep Reddy Vanga. This needs to happen. After seeing how Vanga repackaged Bobby Deol, I need to see what magic Vanga and Abhishek would do together!!
@@bhaveshchoudhary2No. Bobby had a very good career in the 90s and early 2000s.. he was always waiting to bloom again. Ashram was the first step.. Animal skyrocketed his return to another level.
I absolutely don't care what others say about Abhishek Bachchan. I have watched his work in Guru, Ludo and Sarkar and he was an absolute gem 💎 in all these movies. Huge shout-out 👏 to Junior Bachchan. ❤
I really love his acting.... I have watched most of his movies even the flop ones and really loved each performance.... I still remember when KNPH and Refugee released everyone was in awe of Hrithik but Abhishek went unnoticed by the majority... It's really sad and the way he understands that just because he is big B's child he can't just give audience some bad movies is great, an understanding many nepo kids lack today
The reality is the fire in the belly. We don't see any passion for cinema in most (not all) actors. Abhishek Bachchan seems as if he's given up on acting temporarily.
Abhishek Bachchan is very underrated actor. And very underrated comedian too in my opinion. His comic timing is brilliant in some of his movies like Happy New year, Bol Bachchan, Dostana (my opinion only)
Dostana I loved his presence, Happy new year role felt bit caricaturish,but his performance was entertaining, He can do comedy very well,just needs a good direction and story,he can do wonders.
But it's amazing how every generation of the Kapoor family leads the industry. Not everyone, but the Kapoors always have someone from their bloodline who excels in the industry, especially in terms of acting. They are born to act. What is your opinion on this ?
@SachiDias Prithviraj Kapoor was a theater thespian, not a movie superstar. He was a very respected and successful actor in the movies also.. but Raj Kapoor took that legacy to another level altogether. Post independence cinema was defined by Raj Kapoor, Dilip Kumar, and Dev Anand. The trio ruled the 50s and the 60s.. Raj Kapoor was one step ahead and was a filmmaker, writer, and an actor!
So happy for Ranbir Kapoor. Never bothered about his dad's shadow or legacy. Made his own path and now considered one of the best of his generation. Always wish him well.
oh man, I was waiting for you to mention Bluffmaster !!! but there lies the problem...a true underrated gem of an actor who can be easily forgotten... destiny maybe...
Hey Jammy want your take on the upcoming release "Kinds of Kindnesses " directed by Yorgos Lanthimos (hope it is having a theatrical release in India ) because already got hooked by the movie's teaser, trailer cuts and even more excited for the humongous starcast.
I can't thank him enough for his performance in Manmarziyaan. He was an absolute delight in the role. While the character wasn't particularly demanding or emotionally intense, I can't imagine anyone else playing it. If I close my eyes and try to envision another actor in that role, it simply doesn't work. He truly deserved this role and delivered it perfectly. In the same interview where this clip is from, Abhishek mentioned that after watching Manmarziyaan, Amitabh Bachchan, had tears in his eyes. I believe this role is highly underrated, and Abhishek did it complete justice.
Delhi 6 will always be in my top 10 Bollywood Good Feel movies. He is a complete package, still missing that Star persona. And this is where he is lacking. I don't know if he has offered off roles in the past, but the fact is that he needs to challenge himself.
Abhishek Bachan is appreciated by those who truly care about the performance and not the lineage, and he has a certain mature quality to him that's really appealing and praiseworthy. Leaving all this aside, i hope he is in a nice mental space in his life because we don't realise the sheer burden on someone like him who will always remain in the shadow of perhaps the greatest actor ever
The more I watched your video the more I remembered that Abhishek has done more solid work than most of the actors of the past 15 -20 years. Jammy are you up for a re-watch for a Tera Jadoo Chal Gaya. The music is still perfection. And a comparison review of Ravaan and Raavana from Mani Sir. This is for me the greatest interpretation of the Ramayan to due on screen. Reply
He might not be so great hero..but a very good actor..the way he polished himself is wonderful..every actor has their phases so does he..but he had proven his talent😊
The same thing has happened to Akshaye Khanna who has lived in Vinod Khanna's shadow....I think Sunny Deol, Kajol, Shahid Kapoor & Hrithik Roshan might be the only nepotism kids that have actually surpassed their parents!
Raavan for me is one of his best. Also, love the movie. He was just on another level. Him, Aishwarya and Vikram, couldn't ask for better cast. Still don't understand why it bombed so badly. It's one of the first movies i showed my frnds in college and they all loved it and would watch again. Suprised this video even glimpse over it. Maybe I'm living in my own world.
@@kashutosh9132 I never thought of Abhishek as hero or Vikram as a villain in it. It's a story inspired by Ramayana. Was never portrayed as it is straight up Ramayanam like Adipurush did. And if one cannot enjoy a movie without bringing religion or politics into it, I feel we will be missing out on many things.
@@KHP2601 I wouldn't have brought religion into it. But what one can do - the name of the film, promotion of the film,the events and characters all screamed of Ramayan. No problem if it had told the same story without having those names but it was marketed as ramayan adaptation of sorts.
We inherit blessings and curses also, not just wealth and health. And BigB has been notoriously ruining people's lives and careers, back in the days, intoxicated by pride.
Hypothetically if he would've debuted as an outsider then there would have been less pressure but first few years would have been make it or break it.... he wouldn't have got these many chances as non nepo kid. From 2010 to 2018 was very dull phase for him and any non nepo kid wouldn't have got ott chances.
I don't think being Amitabh's son was the reason behind his struggles. Actually, being Amitabh's son gave him ample opportunities but unfortunately he just does not display the range and depth that many of his characters require. He probably suits lighter roles like in Dhoom franchise. In a recent role as a serial killer on OTT he was ineffective.
Abhishek has had many limitations. Every successful actor has a standout USP - Ajay Devgan's acting overshadows his below-average looks, Akshay, Ranveer have a terrific range, Ranbir can act with his eyes, Hritik looks and dances like god, Sunny had his dialogue delivery, even the likes of Suniel Shetty had muscles to show off. Abhishek didn't have any standout feature in either of these departments (looks, acting, dancing, body), hence he could never excel. He could have at least worked on his acting/dancing/body, or experimented with his looks which he didn't do and his efforts always came across as lazy. What separates you a good to great actor is their performance even in a terrible film, in his case he did well when he had a good script, meaty role and a director at his disposal, but was miserable in others. At least he could have worked on his body - look at John Abraham and him in Dostana, or even DJ bobby - he looked miles out of place compared to the two. But good to see his career choices of late - he may not be able to churn 100 Cr blockbusters now with age catching up, but his recent movies will definitely give him respect as a sincere actor in the years to come.
I dont think that the case of overshadowing by Amitabh is relevant today, it was in the 2000s definitely. But today most actors are going through this phase of financially not very successful ventures. But Abhishek's choice of work recently has been great, i hope he is getting creative satisfaction because these definitely have been very different genre movies.
Being a 90s kid. I have a special attachment with Abhishek bacchhan. For me Sarkar, Yuva, Guru are one his best performances. But one movie which you missed in this video of Abhishek and which I am absolute fan of is his "Bluffmaster". What a movie and what a performance from Abhishek apart from Nana Patekar(who I think rarely give any dull performances).
Dont forget "Bluffmaster" ...a true underrated gem . Abhishek was so convincing as the smooth con-man
One of my favourite films !!
how about Om Jai Jagadish where he played a college student who wants to be a computer software engineer and later hacks into the school system in which he later creates an anti-malware software called Om Software

What did not help was the fact that Hrithik could also act and was a more complete package.

Forget the looks, he doesn't even care to work out, while the good looking ones are working hard on dance skills, working on their bodies etc.

i think hrithiks acting has been mediocre at most. Hated War, didn't like the ending and once you know the ending the whole move seemed unrealistic. Not going to watch War 2, after the mess that was Parthan and Tiger 3.
I have to agree. What people don't understand is Hritik was GROOMED SINCE HIS CHILDHOOD to become an actor. SRK, Manoj, Akshay came into industry, very lean thin, without the wealth and facilities that Hrx had.@@vicchandra5953
I think his performance in Bol Bachan is enough to prove him a good actor. AB really made me laugh in that film 🤣🤣🤣
In Dostana he was hillarious and Bluffmaster
I agree I loved him in there 😊
Abhishek is a brilliant actor . He just needs good stories
Abhishek Bachchan is not the superstar type actor of blockbuster movies , he's more of a character actor and should have stuck with offbeat or artsy films only where he would have made a decent career. Chasing the stereotypical Bollywood hero relentlessly, costed him his career.

Sunny Deol and Sanjay Dutt, have done really well in the industry and are really good actors and they seem to be still delivering again now, and their father's Dharamendra and Sunil Dutt were also great in their time, still remember them all in the movie Kshatriya together.
"Maine bhaiya ko maar diya" the dialogue in Sarkar gave me chills, that scene was epic
And after that Amitabh reply
AB ❤
“100 Seconds, Mr. Pillai” - his dialogues from Om Jai Jagadish aged well
You just can't beat Big B. He's 80 something and I'm still excited to see him in Kalki! Abhishek is a great actor and he doesn't have to live in the shadows of anyone, he'll make his own way. I wish him the best in that journey.
I’ve always been a fan of abhishek bachchan I always thought he had his own style. Breathe into the shadows I think is his best performance.
His character as Raavan and in PAA was praise worthy 🎉
You missed the Deols. Both Dharmendra and Sunny saw unreal fandom at their peaks.
💯 correct
Not Bobby. This lord Bobby PR - paid by him - doesn’t take away that he’s not had much success, barring Gupt, soldier, barsat and humraaz
@@RajuAhmed-sy7ys Yes, That's true for Bobby. He met the same fate as Abhishek. But, Sunny's case is different. At his prime he had a dedicated crazy fandom. That fandom and nostalgia combo helped Gadar 2 to be blockbuster else it would be a disaster if anyone else was there in place of sunny
Dude have you lived in 90s. Bobby was most stylish guys that time.
Sunny Deol was a huge star in his prime and still is 😊.When I saw him in the 90s performing , I never got reminded of Dharmendra being his father but in the case of Abhishek I always gets his father vibes.Abhishek should have tried more in comic roles.I maybe in the minority here but I really liked his performance in the move like 10 years back where he played double roles
Extremely underrated in Bollywood - but extremely talented artist. Jammy can you do a Podcast interview with him later ?
Calling bol bachan mediocre is quite a understatement tbh .
It was a good comedy movie.
I luved it😂. It was so ridiculous
Yep I found it fun and only time where Krushna was funny
Yes it was fun

Eww noo
The guess the only father-son duo who matched commercial success not exactly but substantially must be Dharmendra and Sunny Deol.
@@tamzidmohsinkhan3333Sunil dath and Rishi kapoor were not biggest stars
On screen he may not be too versatile & apt for a certain type of roles like Sarkar, Yuva, Guru etc.
But off screen, looking at his social media interactions, he is one of most matured person in entire film industry & hence deserve all the respect
I disagree, he is a versatile actor, showing different flavours in each of his movies.
Agreed. Abhishek, apart from Yuva, Bunty aur Babli, Guru, Ludo (maybe I am missing a few others), has not consistently played a convincing character as far as I am concerned. In most of his attempts it feels like he is "acting" (trying hard) and NOT getting a true moment in front of the film camera as the character (as he gets during his interviews where he is himself..Abhishek playing himself is convincing).
In that case the respect should also go for Arjun Kapoor! He is annice guy.
@@saimatahsin2233 😂😂
@@kauchand Yeah, trying hard. From my observation of his movies, he is camera conscious. It's like he is never immersed in a scene completely. It's like he can't forget he is his father's son and his wife's husband. It interrupts his acting.
Abhishek was absolutely electrifying in Dhoom back in 2004. Without his stellar turn as the suave yet forthright ACP of Mumbai Police, the series wouldn't have become what it did. The face-off between him and John really worked and turned the film into my favourite of the franchise.
Of his latest works, loved him in Ludo.
Unpopular opinion : He was good at his Ott debuts like Breathe, Ludo, Dasvi even in Big Bull..... He is versatile (even in latest release Ghoomer), Imagine him as a relentless, brutal villian that gonna be a GameChanger for sure
They really missed the ball when they tried to use him as the villain in Bholaa
@@TriedRefusedProductionsThat's what I am been thinking since the day I watched Bhoola in theaters. Ajay Devgan vs Abhishek Bachchan battling out in violence full of revenge to each other in Bhoola 2 would have been So Outstanding and Great to Witness if everything was done good ❤✨
Abishek Bachan is a fantastic & highly versatile actor! Wish to see him in more good movies...
So because he was son of Amitabh Bacchan that's why he was so many chances like he learnt all of these in two decades if any other outsider would have been there he wouldn't even have got a single chance
HE HAS ALWAYS SAID HE WANTS T0 BECOME LIKE HIS DAD... THIS IS WHAT MADE HIM UNSUCCESSFUL... HE CANNOT BE ANOTHER AMITABH BACCHAN... HE COULD HAVE BEEN ABISHEK BACCHAN. THE ABHISHEK BACCHAN...
I think Abhishek was a little ahead of his time...the kind of natural acting he does, no doubt he'd have been a hit actor if he was launched in today's time...90's/2000's bollywood script and acting was very different...this applies to some other actors as well like Tabu for example...
movies like Bas Itna Sa Khwaab Hai, Om Jai Jagadish, Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon, Yuva, Phir Milenge all aging well
you should have mentioned bluffmaster everything from that movie is nostalgia now
Nana in the film tho >>>>
Guess 2005 was the year for Abhishek. Doing great films like Bluffmaster, Bunty aur Babli and Sarkar showed his range as an actor. And maybe his peak in Hindi films
@@TriedRefusedProductionswhat kind of title is this? how dare you and how can you say a Hale and hearty man a cursed son? Just think about those parents who have disable children . Ek disable baccha bhi Apne maa baap ke liye curse Nahin hota aur Abhishek to ek Sushil aadmi hai.
Why do we always forget that he is also the son of Jaya Bhaduri, a great actress.
Exactly!! And in her time she was a much bigger actor than amitabh who got into films like anand becuase of her recommendation
@@shikhab2250 Yes, exactly and everytime he gets called by his father's name only no one even mentions her which is sad.
@@SonaliMishra-sh8nh typical Indian mindset keep the women in the backseat and suppress any achievement 😏
You're very right. But Jayaji quit films soon after Sholay, so the newer generation doesn't have much context.. Amitabh, however, became a megastar around the same time when Jayaji quit.. and continues to enthrall everyone with his craft, till date.
Jayaji is one of the greatest actresses of this country.. Koshish, Piya Ka Ghar, Mili, Guddi.. so many amazing performances! Thanks for calling her Jaya 'Bhaduri'.. that's the name we all remember in the titles of all those incredible films she did!
@shikhab2250 Jayaji has always been a big support for Amitabh ji. She did Zanjeer also because of him... Amitabh was going through a tough professional phase before that film. Zanjeer sold because of Jayaji's and Pran's names, who were established names.. and as soon as Zanjeer released, Amitabh became a superstar, and both Amit ji and Jaya ji got married. She also did Silsila because of Amitabh only.
He is an awesome actor
I loved him in Guru, Bluffmaster and my most favourite in "Sarkar"
I always visit "main bhi yahi chahta hoon" scene in Sarkar
In the 1980's 2 starsons came out of their father's larger-than-life shadows
Sunny Deol and Sanjay Dutt.
Sunny Deol proved in 1980's and 1990's that he is a bankable star like Dharmendra was in his heydays.
Similarly, Sanjay Dutt too garnered a massive popularity in the late 1980s and 1990's and gracefully took the legacy of Sunil Dutt and Nargis to new heights. His brother-in-law Kumar Gaurav disastrous projects after his debut film, forced him to exit from the Hindi Film Industry.
Abhishek has grown into his craft. He was never main character (as in commercial hero) energy. But over the years he has been solid and found his own following outside the identity of his father. He did possess talent from the onset unlike the latest onslaught of children of stars and superstars. Abhishek also possesses a wealth of knowledge about filmmaking across Indian languages and I feel he is quite a cinephile. I am glad you picked up this topic. I want to highlight that in MPKDH with Hrithik and Kareena , Abhi was the only one who was tolerable. He excelled in capers like Bluffmaster, Bunty aur Babli and Dus and lets not forget Refugee. Refugee showed us Kareena Kapoor as a force (something I feel she rarely touches in modern age) but Abhi was perhaps hard done by expectations of his dad, and the unprecedented legendary debut of Hrithik Roshan. He has also proven his chops in Guru, Sarkar, Paa and YUva and so many more. And when compared to his peers he is miles ahead - his choices in the past 5 years is pure quality. Abhi is a character actor and I would love to see him and Shahid Kapoor in a movie together.
i’ll see an Abhishek Bachchan John Abraham movie one more day 🙏🏻
Guru is one of the most underrated film by Abhishek. It's extremely brilliant and yet overlooked
I love his filmography. He doesn't shy away from an experiment and I respect that. I still remember his performance in Ludo, it was incredible!
💯 Agree
That's where I think an Actor like Ranbir Kapoor stood out the most he always showed his A game even in the not so successful films his acting was never Bad (Shamshera,Jagga Jasoos,Bombay Velvet)
And Tamasha was the film where he became more than a Star Kid for me
He was born with a golden spoon but he never took that for Granted 🔥
Truly the best in this generation 🥵
You are absolutely right . Also Ranbir has good looks which definitely worked in his favour .
he is from different league , his family has been always into thematically strong cinema not star of millenia stuff
Abhishek's performance in Ludo was superb IMHO. He held on his own in a film with ensemble cast. Especially the scene where he tries his best to get his daughter's attention and breaks down when he fails in doing that. Sad to see his downfall, when it appeared that sky was the limit after his performance in Guru.
I cried watching Khele hum ji jan se. It was a great film. Sad that didn’t work. Abhishek was fantastic.
Amitabh still gives terrific performances so it’s too daunting a task for Abhishek bcoz he will always be brought down
Delhi 6 : Gem
Sarkar : Brilliant
Guru : His best performance
Yuva. : amazing
Bluffmaster : very talented
KANK : Again Solid
Abhishek Bacchan is carrying load of legend Amitabh Bachchan
If he wasn't a nepo kid, he would have been a more successful actor.
Abhishek has raised his acting bar as the time passed by.
He was fabulous in Manmarziyan directed by Anuraag kashyap.
He need to be offloaded from being a star son.
If he wasn't a nepo kid, he wouldn't even have survived in this industry
bruh had to compete with HRX broooooooooootal lol
the only way he mogging him is by his height
@@jojosoni so true, thats what I was thinking if he was not a nepo kid no matter how talented he would've flopped.
He would have been like manoj bajapyee (not a flop) but less talented and relatively unknown.
He wouldn't have gotten any roles for his looks and acting nor would he be able to get married to aishwarya rai.
People wouldn't have cared about him, or even cared enough to criticize because he is not from bacchan legacy. He would've have simply fade awaya and forgotten. Not able to make a quite mark in industry.
Even this video is only made because he became mediocre actor after being years in indistry and did not becomes a hit nepo kid, while being a Amitabh Bachans son.
Agar wo nepo kid nahi hota to ek movie me bhi chance milta usko to badi baat hoti
He would not even make it or get so many chances if he was not a nepo kid. Would have landed up like another Akshaye Khanna at the most or probably not even got break at all
Truly appreciate the resilience of Abhisheik Bachchan! His immense maturity, his subtle wit, his clear diction and well articulated thoughts are always a pleasure to watch. I do believe his 'Guru' days will be back. I just hope he gets a more modern stylist, it will do him a world of good. Thanks for making this episode, Amol! Kudos to you for that!
Also I know he loves jackets and formals, but he would look best in semi formal and casual clothing.
What resilience? 99% indians don't get a fraction of what he got on a platter and he continues to get scripts and movies even though his report card is a D.
Abhishek has always been a mystery for me. We see him in all those movies you mentioned early in the video, and then he keeps surprising us periodically by Sarkar, Yuva, Guru, just prevents us from making a perception for him.
I have loved Abhishek in many of his films.. To name one of the recent ones, I loved him in Manmarziyaan.. I was awestruck by his performance in Yuva. I loved Delhi 6 as a movie and he was good in it, but then again it was a multi-starrer and there was a great supporting cast. However, I feel he has not done a good job with choosing scripts , which is surprising because he comes from a legendary film family.
He is most well behaved person in entire film industry.
Emraan Hashmi also.
@@AnkitGupta-u1n Agreed
Who cares
@@AGNYC People like Us.
if you think Abhishek is a well behaved person, i recommend you watch comedy nights with kapil when Abhishek came with SRK and Farah for Happy New Year.... he behaved very disrespectfully towards Nasiruddin shah's son and Boman irany
Thanks a lot for this video! Abhishek is one of my favorites in the industry and it is not highlighted enough how underated this gem of an actor is. This was overdue.
BTW, I think you missed his commercial success stints - Dus and Bluffmaster - both had him in a pretty suave role for the urban audience. Oh, and Raavan - although the reviews of this movie is pretty divisive - I personally love his madness-driven acting here! And also, a little more low-key - Paa - although it belongs to papa-Bachchan, his sincere portrayal of a new-age politician was solid.
And with his next being Shoojit Sircar's next movie - I am very happy that the actor is getting to do the roles that matter with his recent shift of role choices, even if they are not commerically viable.
Did i miss reference to one of my favorite movies of his - bluffmaster and his rapping chops! I believe he would have made a good career if he has explored more of it!
Bluffmaster is very underrated. His best performance after Guru and Sarkar.
Junior B is truly a curious case. I think ott's helped him a lot in survival days I just want him to do a nandu Bhide once again 😂😂

@@sabrinakhan8217so agree. Initially, it was about his father. But then you forget the parents. I don’t think of Rishi every time we watch Ranbir. This video is basically saying we have shot down a star. Rather, Abhishek has gotten accolades because of his father even when he didn’t deserve it. He is a so so actor.
AB is an exceptional actor - Guru was stellar. He needs the right script and right setting but he is very talented. Underrated for sure.
One film of his which was not mentioned here and is one of my favourites is Bluffmaster, which had the potential of becoming a franchise as well.
I loved him in Sarkar , can’t imagine anytime else in that role.. he nailed it. Nobody hates him, i think it’s just his choice of movies. I really wish he shines and chooses right movies going forward. He is a really good actor
In this case,sunny deol seems to be an outlier though,he was a superstar in the 90s and have a decent legacy despite being dharmendra's son
Dharmendra and Sunny were both huge stars.
Sunny is still in the game.
Sunny was wise enough to pick roles that suited him. His forte was action with the occasional dramatic characters. He didn't try to be the boy next door like his brother Bobby did often in his career
The reason his acting is different from his father .

You forgot yuva
@@swan_909 agree 👍💯. He was raw in that movie. I thought he wasn't even acting. I am watching the real AB on screen

I really love his acting.... I have watched most of his movies even the flop ones and really loved each performance.... I still remember when KNPH and Refugee released everyone was in awe of Hrithik but Abhishek went unnoticed by the majority... It's really sad and the way he understands that just because he is big B's child he can't just give audience some bad movies is great, an understanding many nepo kids lack today
He is much more better than other nepo kids ❤

Abhishek Bachchan is very underrated actor. And very underrated comedian too in my opinion. His comic timing is brilliant in some of his movies like Happy New year, Bol Bachchan, Dostana (my opinion only)
Dostana I loved his presence,

Specially Raj Kapoor's direct line
Raj Kapoor is the greatest Kapoor to have ever graced cinema. No Kapoor matched his legacy and never will.
@@AnkitGupta-u1n Raj Kapoor himself is a son of Superstar father
@SachiDias Prithviraj Kapoor was a theater thespian, not a movie superstar. He was a very respected and successful actor in the movies also.. but Raj Kapoor took that legacy to another level altogether. Post independence cinema was defined by Raj Kapoor, Dilip Kumar, and Dev Anand. The trio ruled the 50s and the 60s.. Raj Kapoor was one step ahead and was a filmmaker, writer, and an actor!
because they were never into superstardom stuff , they are into art mixed with commercial success especially raj kapoor
So happy for Ranbir Kapoor. Never bothered about his dad's shadow or legacy. Made his own path and now considered one of the best of his generation. Always wish him well.
Love how you’ve adopted the “Dodford style” of thumbnails, and editing too (to some extent). 💯
I believe Abhishek Bachchans best is yet to come like his father. Amitabh Bachchans most versatile characters came during his 70s!
His acting in big bull kept me engaged throughout its runtime. What a performance!
oh man, I was waiting for you to mention Bluffmaster !!! but there lies the problem...a true underrated gem of an actor who can be easily forgotten... destiny maybe...
Hey Jammy want your take on the upcoming release "Kinds of Kindnesses " directed by Yorgos Lanthimos (hope it is having a theatrical release in India ) because already got hooked by the movie's teaser, trailer cuts and even more excited for the humongous starcast.
I can't thank him enough for his performance in Manmarziyaan. He was an absolute delight in the role. While the character wasn't particularly demanding or emotionally intense, I can't imagine anyone else playing it. If I close my eyes and try to envision another actor in that role, it simply doesn't work. He truly deserved this role and delivered it perfectly. In the same interview where this clip is from, Abhishek mentioned that after watching Manmarziyaan, Amitabh Bachchan, had tears in his eyes. I believe this role is highly underrated, and Abhishek did it complete justice.
Delhi 6 will always be in my top 10 Bollywood Good Feel movies. He is a complete package, still missing that Star persona. And this is where he is lacking. I don't know if he has offered off roles in the past, but the fact is that he needs to challenge himself.
Abhishek's final words in this video followed by ad of Kalki Trailer was just perfect...
He acted really well in Sarkar and paa
Abhishek Bachan is appreciated by those who truly care about the performance and not the lineage, and he has a certain mature quality to him that's really appealing and praiseworthy. Leaving all this aside, i hope he is in a nice mental space in his life because we don't realise the sheer burden on someone like him who will always remain in the shadow of perhaps the greatest actor ever
The more I watched your video the more I remembered that Abhishek has done more solid work than most of the actors of the past 15 -20 years.
Jammy are you up for a re-watch for a Tera Jadoo Chal Gaya. The music is still perfection. And a comparison review of Ravaan and Raavana from Mani Sir. This is for me the greatest interpretation of the Ramayan to due on screen.

@@kashutosh9132 I never thought of Abhishek as hero or Vikram as a villain in it. It's a story inspired by Ramayana. Was never portrayed as it is straight up Ramayanam like Adipurush did. And if one cannot enjoy a movie without bringing religion or politics into it, I feel we will be missing out on many things.
@@KHP2601
I wouldn't have brought religion into it. But what one can do - the name of the film, promotion of the film,the events and characters all screamed of Ramayan.
No problem if it had told the same story without having those names but it was marketed as ramayan adaptation of sorts.
"Paa" was a landmark film in Abhishek's Career as well, didn't mention it ?
Yuva, kANK, Dhoom are such good performances
Another reason is the media boycott he faced during his wedding .,His overly private wedding was not seen as something positive
He is a nepotism product but a talented one who deserves appreciation but unfortunately nepotism product without talent gets more recognition
We inherit blessings and curses also, not just wealth and health. And BigB has been notoriously ruining people's lives and careers, back in the days, intoxicated by pride.
Hypothetically if he would've debuted as an outsider then there would have been less pressure but first few years would have been make it or break it.... he wouldn't have got these many chances as non nepo kid. From 2010 to 2018 was very dull phase for him and any non nepo kid wouldn't have got ott chances.

@@kashutosh9132 AB, Vinod khanna, mithoon, govinda etc
@@SachiDias No he wasn't
I don't think being Amitabh's son was the reason behind his struggles. Actually, being Amitabh's son gave him ample opportunities but unfortunately he just does not display the range and depth that many of his characters require. He probably suits lighter roles like in Dhoom franchise. In a recent role as a serial killer on OTT he was ineffective.
Abhishek has had many limitations. Every successful actor has a standout USP - Ajay Devgan's acting overshadows his below-average looks, Akshay, Ranveer have a terrific range, Ranbir can act with his eyes, Hritik looks and dances like god, Sunny had his dialogue delivery, even the likes of Suniel Shetty had muscles to show off.
Abhishek didn't have any standout feature in either of these departments (looks, acting, dancing, body), hence he could never excel. He could have at least worked on his acting/dancing/body, or experimented with his looks which he didn't do and his efforts always came across as lazy. What separates you a good to great actor is their performance even in a terrible film, in his case he did well when he had a good script, meaty role and a director at his disposal, but was miserable in others.
At least he could have worked on his body - look at John Abraham and him in Dostana, or even DJ bobby - he looked miles out of place compared to the two.
But good to see his career choices of late - he may not be able to churn 100 Cr blockbusters now with age catching up, but his recent movies will definitely give him respect as a sincere actor in the years to come.
I dont think that the case of overshadowing by Amitabh is relevant today, it was in the 2000s definitely. But today most actors are going through this phase of financially not very successful ventures. But Abhishek's choice of work recently has been great, i hope he is getting creative satisfaction because these definitely have been very different genre movies.
I always feel he is a complete actor who has not got his due even after spending so many years in the industry
What is a complete actor.
Being a 90s kid. I have a special attachment with Abhishek bacchhan. For me Sarkar, Yuva, Guru are one his best performances. But one movie which you missed in this video of Abhishek and which I am absolute fan of is his "Bluffmaster". What a movie and what a performance from Abhishek apart from Nana Patekar(who I think rarely give any dull performances).
