Abhishek Bachchan is completing twenty years in Bollywood this month. He once again went down the memory lane to give an insight into another landmark year of his career in the Hindi film industry. Continuing his ‘Road To 20’ journey, Abhishek recalled teaming up with Mani Ratnam for the second time for Guru and sharing screen space for the fourth time with wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. He revealed that while he did films for friends like Shootout At Lokhandwala, he made many amazing memories in 2007.
Abhishek wrote, “#RoadTo20 Year-2007 #Guru #JhoomBarabarJhoom A landmark year for me both personally and professionally! Guru brought me back together with Mani for the 2nd time, @aishwaryaraibachchan_arb for the 4th and #Mithunda, @balanvidya and @actormaddy for the first time. Guru, was one of the most creatively satisfying films in my career. A film we all worked so hard on and enjoyed making immensely. Great music by @arrahman ( Tere Bina remains my favourite). The huge talent and dedication of the entire cast made my job so easy. And my “phiphty percent partner” was truly the wind beneath Gurukant Desai’s wings!”
Talking about Shootout At Lokhandwala, Abhishek wrote, “@lakhiaapoorva after Mumbai se Aaya Mera Dost, told me that in no matter what capacity, he would have me in every film he made. Staying true to that promise was #ShootOutAtLokhandwala yes career decisions are important and you need to think and decide very carefully. But I’ve always believed that we must also do films for fun and for friends! And Apu is one of my closest."
He further wrote about Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, “The year was capped off with #JBJ from the brilliant, mad and creative mind of another dear friend... @shaadalisahgal ( our next after B&B ) My 4th film appearance with @amitabhbachchan. My second film with both @realpz and @larabhupathi and my first with my friend @iambobbydeol Still one of the coolest soundtracks out there by the legendary @shankar.mahadevan @ehsaan @loymendonsaofficial @shankarehsaanloy
Bob and I even got the opportunity to pay homage to our fathers and their legendary song “yeh dosti”. Great memories... that’s also what it’s about- making memories. And in 2007 I made some of the best ones.”
Meanwhile, on the work front, Abhishek will be soon making his digital debut with Amazon Original Show Breathe: Into The Shadows which will premiere on July 10. He will also be seen in the films Ludo and Bob Biswas.
