Abhishek Bachchan is an Indian actor and producer known for his work in Bollywood films. He made his debut in 2000, opposite Kareena Kapoor, in the J. P. Dutta-directed war drama Refugee. His portrayal of the titular unnamed refugee garnered him a nomination for Best Male Debut at the Filmfare Awards ceremony.[1] However, the film was a box office failure, as were a series of his subsequent films, including Bas Itna Sa Khwaab Hai (2001), and Shararat (2002).[2] His career prospects improved in 2004, when he played a gangster in the Mani Ratnam-directed political drama Yuva, and a police officer in Sanjay Gadhvi's action thriller Dhoom.[2][3] For the former, he won his first Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor,[4] and the latter became one of the highest-grossing films of the year and his first commercial success.[2][5]

In 2005, Bachchan starred in the crime comedy Bunty Aur Babli opposite Rani Mukerji, and the Ram Gopal Varma-directed thriller Sarkar. The former was the second highest-grossing film of the year,[6] and his performance in the latter earned him a second Best Supporting Actor award at Filmfare.[7] In both films he co-starred with his father, Amitabh Bachchan. That same year, he also appeared in the Bengali film Antarmahal (2005). The following year, Bachchan appeared in the Karan Johar-directed romantic drama Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006), for which he received his third consecutive Best Supporting Actor award at Filmfare.[8] Also that year, he reunited with Dutta on the historical romantic drama Umrao Jaan (2006), and reprised his role as a police officer in the second installment of the Dhoom series, entitled Dhoom 2 (2006). The latter was the highest grossing Bollywood film to that point.[9] Bachchan next starred alongside Aishwarya Rai in Guru (2007), a biopic inspired by the life of the businessman Dhirubhai Ambani.[10] His titular role in the film was positively received.[2]

In 2008, Bachchan starred in Varma's Sarkar Raj, the romantic comedy Dostana, and the superhero film Drona. The following year, Bachchan produced and appeared in Paa (2009), a comedy-drama which won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Hindi.[11] In the same year, he also starred in the Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra-directed satire Delhi-6 (2009). Bachchan then suffered a brief setback in his career as he starred in another series of films that performed poorly at the box-office, including Ratnam's drama Raavan (2010), and the action thriller Game (2011).[2] His supporting role in the comedy Bol Bachchan (2012), opposite Ajay Devgan, proved to be his first box-office success since Paa.[12][13] He followed this with three more supporting appearances in commercially successful films: Dhoom 3 (2013), opposite Aamir Khan,[2] the action heist comedy Happy New Year (2014), opposite Shah Rukh Khan.,[14][15] and the 2016 film Housefull 3 opposite Akshay Kumar.
