By now, every movie buff must have witnessed Amitabh Bachchan promoting the upcoming film of his son in full swing. Addressing his father’s excitement for the film, the actor revealed that this is what he has been panicking about and because Amitabh Bachchan is promoting his film with such dedication, he is worried that Dasvi has to “live up to all that now”.
In addition, Abhishek said that his father is “on some India Yatra” currently, because he is shooting in Lucknow, Rishikesh, and next week he will be in Delhi, and amidst his busy schedule he keeps asking Abhishek when he can watch the movie.
The Dasvi actor revealed, “He has taken the mantle of being the PRO of the film I think.” Listening to this, Dasvi’s director Tushar Jalota said, “Our greatest PRO in the history of PROs”.
Abhishek also revealed that his daughter Aaradhya Bachchan recently watched the trailer of the film and she liked it. The actor further admitted his nervousness and shared that he is hoping his family likes the film, adding that “they have been very supportive” towards the film.
