Did you know Abhishek Bachchan was once slapped by a fan and was asked to quit acting?
Abhishek Bachchan has had a mixed journey in showbiz, experiencing both successes and failures. While he has delivered remarkable performances in movies like ‘Guru’, ‘Bluff Master', and ‘Yuva’, he has also faced disappointments with films like ‘Jhoom Barabar Jhoom’ and ‘Dhrona’. In fact, Abhishek once shared an incident where a fan was so disappointed with his work in ‘Shararat’ (2002) that she physically slapped him inside a theater.
Recently, a video interview featuring Abhishek and the cast of ‘Dhoom 3’, including Aamir Khan, Katrina Kaif, and Uday Chopra, surfaced on social media. In the interview, Abhishek recalled the shocking incident of being slapped by a lady who expressed her dissatisfaction with his acting. She even suggested that he should quit acting as he was allegedly tarnishing his father's name. Abhishek mentioned that the incident took place during the release of the film, and it left a lasting impact on him.
Interestingly, Abhishek also shared a heartwarming anecdote related to the same theater. During the release of ‘Bol Bachchan’, a year prior to the interview, he revisited the same theater and was amazed by the large crowd of around 10,000 people gathered outside. Feeling a sense of fulfillment, he took a photograph and sent it to his father, expressing how life had come to a full circle for him.

Looking ahead, Abhishek has several exciting projects lined up. He is set to star in ‘Ghoomer’ and ‘SSS7’, where he not only plays the lead actor but also serves as a producer. Additionally, he will also be seen in renowned directors Remo D'Souza and Shoojit Sircar’s upcoming projects.
Meanwhile, Abhishek's recent projects, including ‘Breath: Into The Shadows Season 2’, ‘Dasvi’, and ‘Bob Biswas’, have been well-received by audiences, further cementing his position in the industry.
