Abhishek Bachchan is the son of Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan and actress Jaya Bachchan; his elder sister is Shweta Bachchan-Nanda (b. 1974). His grandfather, Harivansh Rai Bachchan, was a poet of Hindi literature. The original last name of his parental family is Srivastav, Bachchan being the pen name used by his grandfather. However, when his father Amitabh entered films, he did so under his own father’s pen name. Bachchan is of Punjabi Sikh heritage from his grandmother Teji’s side, while also of Bengali Kulin Brahmin descent from his mother Jaya Bhaduri’s side.

Abhishek was dyslexic as a child. He attended Jamnabai Narsee School and Bombay Scottish School in Mumbai, Modern School, Vasant Vihar, New Delhi, and Aiglon College in Switzerland. He then went to the U.S. to attend Boston University.

Abhishek began his career with J.P. Dutta’s Refugee (2000). Bachchan went on to do other films, including Kuch Na Kaho and Bas Itna Sa Khwaab Hai, without much success.

Abhishek went on to give a string of 17 poorly received films but his performances in Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon (2003)and Mani Ratnam’s Yuva (2004) proved his mettle as an actor. The same year, he starred in Dhoom his first commercial hit.In 2005, Bachchan shot to fame with four movies that did well commercially: Bunty Aur Babli, Sarkar, Dus, and Bluffmaster; the first was one of the highest-grossing films of the year, and the other three performed moderately well. He won his second Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor for Sarkar. Bachchan also received his first Filmfare nomination in the Best Actor category.
Bachchan’s first 2006 release Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, was one of India’s highest-grossing films of the year.8 He played the role of Rishi Talwar, a young man who lives in New York and whose wife sets on an extramarital affair with another man. His performance in the film earned him his third consecutive award for Best Supporting Actor at the Filmfare Awards. He was also a part of Mani Ratnam’s stage show, Netru, Indru, Naalai, alongside many other co-stars. Bachchan’s second release Umrao Jaan failed to do well at the box office, but his third film that year, the sequel Dhoom 2, did very well’although, as in the first Dhoom, critics found that Hrithik Roshan, as the antagonist, stole the show.

In 2007, Bachchan starred in Guru, receiving much acclaim for his performance, and the film emerged as his first solo hit. In May 2007, he made a brief appearance in the successful Shootout at Lokhandwala. His next release, Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, which released in June 2007, failed to do well in India but did better overseas, especially in the UK. While the film itself received mixed reviews, Bachchan won praise for his performance.
In the summer of 2008, Bachchan, his wife, his father, and fellow performers Preity Zinta, Ritesh Deshmukh, and Madhuri Dixit starred in the “Unforgettable World Tour” stage production. The first leg covered the U.S, Canada, Trinidad, and London, England.
Bachchan is also involved in the functional and administrative operations of his father’s company, originally known as ABCL, and rechristened as AB Corp. Ltd. That company, along with Wizcraft International Entertainment Pvt. Ltd., developed the Unforgettable production.
Among Bachchan’s 2008 films were Sarkar Raj, Dostana and Drona.

Bachchan produced the Hindi film Paa for his family company AB Corp. Ltd. in which he played the role of his father Amitabh Bachchan’s father.
In January 2010, Bachchan hosted a game show for Colors titled National Bingo Night. The debut episode fetched a 3.5 in the TVR ratings. In 2010, he starred in the film Raavan opposite his wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Rediff said the film had “great performances” while Taran Adarsh stated that Bachchan lacked the maturity required for the role. With a five week box office of 28.53 Crore and a distribution share of 15.33 it was declared a flop by Boxoffice India.

In October 2002, at Amitabh Bachchan’s 60th birthday celebration, Abhishek Bachchan and actress Karisma Kapoor announced their engagement. The engagement was called off in January 2003.

In 2006, Bachchan was named the sexiest man in Asia by UK magazine Eastern Eye. The Times of India called him the most eligible bachelor of India.
Bachchan and actress Aishwarya Rai announced their engagement on 14 January 2007. The couple was married on 20 April 2007, according to traditional Hindu rites of the South Indian Bunt community, to which Rai belongs. Token North Indian and Bengali ceremonies were also performed. The wedding took place in a private ceremony at the Bachchan residence Prateeksha, in Juhu, Mumbai, but was heavily covered by the entertainment media
