Did Abhishek ever had a solo-hit, a movie that he can solely claim to be his own?
There are a lot of things that contributed to his success. Family connections, his lively personality and his pairing with Rani (who was a superstar then) are a couple of reasons behind his hits or acclaimed performances.

For instance:

Yuva - Mani Ratnam
Dhoom - John
B&B - BigB + Rani
Sarkar - BigB
KANK - SRK +KJo
Dhoom2 - Hrithik + Ash
Guru - Ash
Dostana - John + Priyanka
Paa - BigB

That said, I do think Abhishek is a good actor - one of the best, if not the best, of this generation. His performances in Yuva, Sarkar, KANK, Guru and Paa moved me. Thing is, he does not possess what it needs to be a star. He fits more into the serious cinemas than the commercial, typical-Bollywood movies.

Some of his performances - while good - are overhyped though. Like critics were making a molehill out of his work in Yuva, which, despite of being good, was nowhere near to what it was made out to be.

Sometimes I feel his family connections was also a reason behind his failure. People expected much more, especially since his father is regarded as a legend in Bollywood, and when they saw he couldn't match upto his father's talent, started writing him off.

Is there any leg left of his so-called career lol. I feel sorry for all the people who invest money on him. If I were him, I would quit out of shame.

i'd give Abhi the credit for Guru--Ash didn't really have much to do, anyone couldve done what she did, nothng to write home about.
The reason Amitabh didn't LAUNCH abhishek was because he was bankrupt at that time, he didn't have much in his hand and therefore made a comeback himself.

🤣 Abhishek will never work with Rani because of Aish's fallout with her. Aish knows her husband well and he will do nothing to offend her. So, Rani and Abhishek will never work again together in this lifetime! 💔

Is he even in the postion to decide and pick the people he wants to work with! He would be lucky if any one other than his wife... agrees to work with him.

Abhishek and Aish are meant to be working together and will continue for years to come. Raavan will not affect their pairing at all! Raj Kumar Santoshi is casting them in his next, along with Amitabh. When the three Bachchans are together, the movie can at least reach the average or safety mark. Sarkar Raj is a good example of this, it was not a failure by any means. 🐷
And besides, if I was Abhishek, I would only want to work with my wife anyway. Can you blame him? 😈

I prefer Abhishek in a multi starrer movies only, & not solos. Actually never quite liked him much though I know he is good at acting but I dont know I never considered him like a Hindi Movie Hero, he doesnt look like a hero.
