Abhishek Bachchan, last seen in Anurag Basu’s Ludo, completed 20 years in Bollywood in 2020. Since the beginning of his career in 2000 with JP Dutta’s Refugee, Abhishek has been repeatedly subjected to comparisons with his father that often overshadowed his films and performances.
Following a lull phase in late 2000s, Abhishek took a two-year-long break from the movies and returned to the screen with Anurag Kashyap’s romance Manmarziyaan, which earned unanimous acclaim for his performance and in a way, marked his second innings in the industry. His turns in his last projects — Ludo and Amazon Prime Video series Breathe: Into The Shadows have also been been lauded.
