My Take
Abhishek Bachchan carries one of the heaviest surnames in Indian cinema, son of the towering Amitabh Bachchan and the acclaimed Jaya Bachchan. I have a lot of time for performers born into that kind of shadow who still build a real career on their own terms. He has won Filmfare recognition, produced his own films, hosted television, and landed on Forbes India's Celebrity 100 from 2012 to 2016, which is no small feat in such a crowded field. The easy critique is nepotism, but I think persistence under that constant comparison takes a particular kind of nerve, and Abhishek has shown it.
