Just like pre-nups, the politically-correct Bachchans are known to brief it up and quickly outline the do’s and don’ts. In a nutshell, we never got beyond Ash’s rock of a ring and congratulations. When it’s a celebrity hook-up, you really wanna poke your nose into it. But right now, the Swiss-groomed Aby Baby redirects Miss Nosey Parker towards Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, which rolls in this Friday.

                        “Essentially, it’s a love story, told in a way Shaad would tell with all the flamboyance, vibrant colours, amazing settings...it’s a unique piece of work for it has been essayed through music and lives in a world of its own that’s complete madness,” he ‘briefs’ us on yet another Yashraj’s entertaining movie marathon running this year.

Meanwhile, Bachchan Junior will be playing Rikki Thukral — typical flashy Punjabi from Bathinda loaded in yellow gold and zipped up in embroidered zari jackets and ripped-off jeans, currently settled in South Hall and looking for a ‘ticket to Hollywood’.“This guy’s quite a character. He’s dabbled in everything from real estate to video piracy, anything to get the food on table,” chuckles Aby. Shot straight from Shaad’s imagination, Rikki’s a streetsmart Punju with bling bling, gelled-back hair and a heart of gold.

“He’s a wheeler-dealer,” Abhishek compliments Aki Narula’s stylising. “Aki’s etched out the character. If you look the part, then 50 per cent of the job is done as the body language itself puts across a lot,” feels Abhishek who’s known more for his interesting portrayal of characters like Guru, Lallan, Roy and Bunty than herogiri in Dhoom and Dus.“We can’t consciously play a hero, we have to act. And I enjoy ensembles than the one hero thing, for you get to hang out with your friends more.” In JBJ’s case, it was loads of masti with Preity (who is the only one who can beat at a talkathon), Lara, Aki, Shaad etc etc.

And what about Big B? “It’s great working with him too,” is all Aby says, reserving best wishes to be said “in person” on Father’s Day which falls on June 17. By the way, he’ll be soon seen with mum, Jaya Bachchan in a film. “The shooting’s going on,” is all he lets out.There’s Sarkar 2, which will release this year end, and it has Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in it too. Now this one will be a show stealer!
