‘Aishwarya gave me the permission to act after wedding, said I’ll take care of Aaradhya’: Abhishek Bachchan

“A lot of what I am as an actor post marriage is due to Aishwarya,” Abhishek Bachchan admitted in a conversation with RJ Siddharth Kannan. “One is the practical, logistical side of it. To know that my wife is with Aaradhya is a huge, emotional weight that is lifted, from any parents’ mind. She has allowed me, and I say allowed because that’s what it is — she’s given me permission and allowed (and said), ‘You go act, I’ll take care of Aaradhya.’ So you go out, you get the liberty to perform freely. And it’s a fact. The countless amount of mothers that do this with their husbands, and you have to be thankful. They have every right to say, ‘Come, shoulder the responsibility 50-50.’ So from that perspective,” he said.

He continued to talk about how being a husband and a father made him “richer as a performer.”

“The ultimate richness comes when you have a child because suddenly, your priorities and perspective change. You could have been fearless about somethings but today, you cannot afford being fearless in some aspects because you are responsible for a new life,” Bachchan explained, adding that today, he doesn’t want to do content that Aaradhya wouldn’t be proud of.

“I say it today, which is my personal choice, I don’t know if I would be comfortable making films that I feel my daughter might get embarrassed watching. I would not want to make a film which my child says ‘why did he make this film?’ I never want to do that,” he concluded.

On the work front, Abhishek Bachchan is currently basking in the success of Bob Biswas.
