Since Saat Hindustani, in 1969 Indian action film, to 2021’s Chehre, this cinematic legend has dominated histrionics and portrayals of vivid emotions. He is far superior to anyone else when it comes to portraying any character, however simple or complex it may be. Rumi Jaffrey’s powerful drama ‘Chehre’ featured a stirring performance by the angry old man who elevated the story without overshadowing the other top actors.

I have been in awe of Abhishek Bachchan ever since I saw Ramgopal Verma’s Sarkar Raj and always believed he would go a long way because he has a lot of hidden potential. Seeing him as an aspirational and impulsive Gujrati Stockbroker from Dalaal Street was captivating for everyone watching “Big Bull’, as he demonstrated ambition and tenacity through his demeanor and deeds, along with his boundless energy, while on his journey to become super-rich and king of Dalaal Street. Neither his father, the legend of Bollywood Amitabh Bachchan, nor his mother, Jaya Bachchan, could contain their excitement as they watched the film for the fourth time. Abhishek, as a Gujarati stockbroker who knocked Dalaal Street flat,  as Hemant Shah was spot-on. There were several drawbacks to the movie, but his performance was exceptional throughout.
