One of the biggest challenges star kids face is living under the shadows of their established parents. Abhishek Bachchan is no stranger to this notion. Despite delivering exceptional performances in his career, the actor has had to face trolling, criticism and harsh words for not living up to Amitabh Bachchan's legacy, the living legend of Indian cinema.
Taslima Nasreen was the latest critic to do so. After junior Bachchan won big at Filmfare OTT awards for his role in Dasvi, a proud Amitabh Bachchan shared a profound note to congratulate him.
Talking about the same, Taslima Nasreen tweeted, ''Amitabh Bachchan ji loves his son Abhishek Bachchan so much that he thinks his son inherited all his talents and his son is the best. Abhishek is good, but I do not think Abhishek is as talented as Amitji."
Her tweet was in response to Amitabh Bachchan's tweet congratulating his son for winning the Filmfare OTT award for Best Actor for Dasvi. He tweeted, ''My pride .. my joy .. you have proved your point .. you were derided, ridiculed mocked .. but you silently without any tom tomming, showed your mettle .. you are and shall ever be the BEST''.

This time, Abhishek Bachchan did not take the comment laying down as he replied to her tweet in the sense of humility and wittiness that his wife, Aishwarya Rai is proud of. He wrote back, ''Absolutely correct, Ma’am. Nobody comes close to him in talent or anything else for that matter. He will always remain “ the best”! I am an extremely proud son.''

Needless to say, fans and actor Suniel Shetty were more than impressed by Abhishek Bachchan's sharp-witted reply. Interestingly, not only fans were left impressed with Abhishek's reply but author Taslima Nasreen herself. She responded to the tweet by writing, ''I am so touched by your humility and modesty, Abhishek Bachchan @juniorbachchan. Started watching Dasvi''.
I am so touched by your humility and modesty, Abhishek Bachchan @juniorbachchan 🙏. Started watching Dasvi. https://t.co/zre9Xl5NA0 — taslima nasreen (@taslimanasreen) December 23, 2022
