    Bollywood superstar Abhishek Bachchan is a well-known actor and film producer. He is recognized for his phenomenal acting skills and personality. The son of the Bollywood Shahenshah Amitabh Bachchan and famous actress Jaya Bachchan, Abhishek was born on 5th February 1976 in Mumbai.

    He got his school education from Bombay Scottish School, Jamnabai Narsee School and Modern School in New Delhi followed by which he went to the United States for advanced studies.

    Later, he returned to Mumbai and tried his luck in the film industry. He made his Bollywood debut with JP Dutta's movie Refugee in the year 2000. The film, however, did not do well. That being said, Abhishek, later on, featured in many films but could not make his mark which made people question his acting skills comparing him with his father who himself is a great actor.

    However, his career soon took a flight after his role in Mani Ratnam's film Yuva in the year 2004. He also received the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor for the film. Afterward, he went on to deliver some of the best movies of the industry including Dhoom (2004), Bunty aur Babli (2005), Sarkar (2005), Dostana (2008), Paa (2009), Bol Bachchan (2012), and so on. One of the biggest film of his career, Guru (2007), directed by Mani Ratnam once again displayed his versatile personality.

    During this time, Junior Bachchan fell in love with the beautiful Aishwarya Rai on the sets of Dhoom 2, and very soon the couple got married on 20 April 2007 at the Bachchan residence. The couple was showered with love and blessings by their fans and their chemistry was pretty much evident in the films they worked together. However, Abhishek was previously engaged to Bollywood actress Karishma Kapoor in the year 2000 but this engagement broke down in the same year.

    Abhi-Ash on 16 November 2011, welcomed their first child, daughter Aaradhya.

    Other than his Bollywood career, Abhishek Bachchan is very much active in sports and has bought the Pro Kabaddi League franchise team Jaipur Pink Panthers. He also co-bought the Indian super league football team Chennaiyin FC. Other than these, he is also involved in various social and health awareness campaigns.

Controversies
Abhishek-Karisma breakup: Abhishek's relationship with actress Karishma Kapoor became the talk of the town when the duo got engaged in 2002 after dating for five years. However, they soon called off their engagement for reasons we don't know! It has been speculated that Karishma's mother was not happy with the career of Abhishek who was at that time trying to fit in the industry. After that, Karishma got married to a Delhi-based businessman Sanjay Kapur and Abhishek got married to the beautiful Aishwarya Rai.

The duo's chemistry in the film "Bunty aur Babli" was quite evident and rumours were all around that the two has started seeing each other. However, both Rani and Abhishek never acknowledged their relationship and maintained the 'friend' status.
