All his life, Abhishek Bachchan has heard that he isn’t as talented as his father and ace actor Amitabh Bachchan. There is no doubt that Big B’s screen presence is larger than life and his acting legacy is something that will be remembered for generations to come. However, that doesn’t mean that junior Bachchan is less talented. In fact, his acting abilities have been overshadowed by that of his father.
Author Taslima Nasreen recently took to Twitter to claim that Abhishek Bachchan isn’t as talented as Amitabh, who loves his son so much that he thinks the son has inherited the father’s acting talent.

“Amitabh Bachchan ji loves his son Abhishek Bachchan so much that he thinks his son inherited all his talents and his son is the best. Abhishek is good, but I do not think Abhishek is as talented as Amitji,” she tweeted.
While some other actors might have snapped back at this comment, Abhishek Bachchan knows better. In his classy yet humble way, he accepted that his acting abilities can never come close to that of his father.

“Absolutely correct, Ma’am. Nobody comes close to him in talent or anything else for that matter. He will always remain ‘the best’! I am an extremely proud son,” he replied.
Here’s a screenshot of the exchange. Suniel Shetty also responded with a ‘heart’ emoji to Junior Bachchan’s reply.
Tasleema Nasreen probably didn’t expect Abhishek Bachchan to be this grounded. So being grateful for his behavior, she deleted her tweet and later posted, “I am so touched by your humility and modesty, Abhishek Bachchan. Started watching Dasvi.”
I am so touched by your humility and modesty, Abhishek Bachchan @juniorbachchan 🙏. Started watching Dasvi. https://t.co/zre9Xl5NA0
