On taking time off, Abhishek was asked if he took any acting advice from his father, Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan. He replied, "No, I didn’t. My career and its path is nothing like my father’s and it never will be."

The 42-year-old actor added, "For once, I thought selfishly and decided to do things my way. It’s not like ‘if someone could do this, so can I’. It was about how I wanted things."

Abhishek continued that signing Manmarziyaan was the right decision for him in the direction that he wanted to go. He mentioned, "The validation of my decision was what I felt when I stepped on to the set and the response to the trailer."
