debut alongside Kareena Kapoor in JP
Dutta's Refugee. He may not have tasted as
much success as his father Amitabh
Bachchan, but he has certainly managed to
carve a niche for himself in the film industry
with his unconventional roles in films like
Bunty Aur Babli, Guru and Paa.
However, if a report in Deccan Chronicle is
to be believed, Abhishek's wife and actor
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan "felt his career
needed a small push", and hence she
decided to hire her alleged ex-boyfriend
Salman Khan's former manager Reshma
Shetty.
"Of late, he hasn't signed new films and is
choosing to focus on the best possible
projects. Following his revamped priorities,
his first new project will be Sanjay Leela
Bhansali's biopic on poet-lyricist, Sahir
Ludhianvi. Reshma has been brought in to
oversee Abhishek's forthcoming career
moves and to position him as a prominent
entertainment brand," a source was quoted
as saying by Deccan Chronicle.
Reshma, who is the Managing Director of
Matrix India Entertainment Consultants,
worked with Salman for nine years.
