Abhishek Bachchan: The Acid Test With The Release of ‘Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey’
December 4th, 2010 - 7:47 pm ICT by Sampurn Wire
Abhishek Bachchan is the actor in B town who is right on an acid test with the release of the Ashutosh Gowarikar flick ‘Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey’.
Abhishek has had quite a trying time with his not so blooming career in films in recent times. The actor has appeared in this period film in a very asserting role of a protagonist named Surjya Sen who becomes the inspiration behind a group of youngsters into joining the freedom movement.
The most inspiring tale in history has been dealt with in the film as the Chittagong uprising during the 1930’s has been used as the basic backdrop of the film.
Abhishek Bachchan, who had been bestowed with quite a lot of critical acclaim for his role in Guru, has never really been able to reach that level of popularity after that film. Thus with this powerful inspiring role as the historical character many hopes are pinned on the film to be well appreciated.
‘Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey’ is based on a book by Manini Chatterjee titled Do or Die and every detail mentioned in the book has been followed to the hilt.
The movie is on the brink of being judged as its release has caused quite an interest. Abhishek Bachchan who is the protagonist school teacher in the film has a very big task on his shoulders to inspire 50 youngsters in the film to go for the simultaneous attack that was planned against the British in five different places during a single night. The plot is quite interesting and so is the backdrop.
Let’s just hope Abhishek’s work in the film speaks about his great talent as an actor and he stands out and through this film to prove his prowess as an experienced actor from Bollywood.
