He¡¯s called the coolest actor in the entertainment industry. Abhishek Bachchan is known for his calm and composed temperament. However, a recent turn of events made him lose his cool. So much so that he walked out of a show mid-shooting.
Bachchan was filming for an episode of ¡®Case Toh Banta Hai¡¯ which stars Riteish Deshmukh, Varun Sharma and Kusha Kapila.
During a sequence, Abhishek said, "I'm not a fool¡± and walked out of the show much to the dismay of the makers and cast alike.
The actor said during the shoot: "It's getting a bit too much. I'm all game for myself. I get it, but let's not get to parents and all that. Mujh tak jokes rakh lena, pitaji ko lekar me thoda sensitive ho jaata hoon (I'm fine with jokes being told at my expense but I get sensitive when it comes to my father). Wo mere pita hain, mujhe acha nahi lagta (He is my father and I don't like it)."
Comedian Paritosh(the one who has cracked the said joke) tried to calm him down, but Abhishek was in no mood to hear him out.
A visibly miffed Abhishek said, "Thodi izzat deni chahiye. Comedy ke daayare me itna bhi nahi karna chahiye, hum log aaj kal beh jaate hai (one should be respectful. You cannot say anything just because you're trying to extract humour)".
While the makers intervened immediately in an attempt to diffuse the situation, Abhishek simply walked off the set leaving Ritesh and the other actors completely shocked.
For the unversed, Case Toh Banta Hai which streams on AmazonminiTV, is a weekly comedy show starring Riteish Deshmukh as a defense lawyer, Varun Sharma as a public prosecutor and Kusha Kapila as the judge.
Comedians Paritosh Tripathi, Gopal Dutt, Sanket Bhosale, and Sugandha Mishra perform comic sketches to amp up the entertainment quotient of the show.
Parallely, a video clip of Amitabh Bachchan from his TV Show Kaun Banega Crorepati has been doing the rounds which shows his son Abhishek giving him a heartwarming surprise!
Senior Bachchan who will be celebrating his 80th birthday on October 11 had a surprise guest on his show in the form of Abhishek.
This episode will also witness a guest appearance of his wife Jaya Bachchan.
According to the video, just when Amitabh is about to introduce the contestants, the alarm signaling the end of the show goes off. A befuddled Big B can be heard saying, ¡°The game has ended too soon?¡±
Soon after, Abhishek¡¯s voice can be heard mouthing Big B¡¯s popular dialogue - ¡®Kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayal aata hai.¡¯
Then we see the father-son duo in a tight embrace with each other and an emotional Amitabh with tears in his eyes!
