Derogatory to classify actors as comedians: Abhishek Bachchan

Agreeing with Abhishek was his co-star Akshay Kumar who said actors who perform comedy are those he looks up to. “Slapstick comedy is very difficult to do on screen. Don’t look down at slapstick comedy. I look up to actors who perform comic roles. Actors like Charlie Chaplin, Bean (Atkinson), Jack Black.”

Chunkey Pandey who was present at the press conference opined that a comedy film should receive an Oscar to gain respectability in the eyes of masses.
