Amitabh Bachchan is one proud father. The veteran actor is basking in all the praise coming in for his son, Abhishek Bachchan and his inspired performance in the film Dasvi. Abhishek's performance as a politician, who resumes his education in jail and strives to gain a 10th-grade diploma after being humiliated, has managed to win over not only the audience but also his father, Amitabh Bachchan. On Wednesday, the legendary actor shared a fan-made video of his iconic song Khaike Paan Banaras Wala from Don, but with a twist. While the video is from the 70's classic, the song in the background is from the recently released Dasvi.
While fans have showered their love on the video, it is the caption that has the Internet talking. In his note, Amitabh Bachchan said that some of Abhishek's dance moves as a child had inspired the steps in Khaike Paan Banaras Wala. He said, “Some of the moves were a copy of Abhishek when he was a kid, he used to dance like that... he moved sideways always.”
Replying to the post, Abhishek Bachchan said, “Haha. Still moving sideways.”

A few days ago, Amitabh Bachchan also shared a sketch of Abhishek and him, made by a fan and said, “Ready to devour. And let me tell you, you already have…”
Before that, the veteran actor shared another fan-made picture of the father-son duo and said, “‘The heart of a Father is the masterpiece of nature' ~ Antoine François Prévost. Abhishek... may yours be too, as a Father.”
When Dasvi was released on Netflix, Amitabh Bachchan also shared a throwback image of Abhishek Bachchan as a child. In the image, Abhishek can be seen posing with an impish smile on his face. Sharing the image, Amitabh Bachchan said, “Dasvi... ab aur bolne ki zaroorat nahi (There is no need to say anything more now).”
On the work front, Amitabh Bachchan will be seen in a bunch of upcoming projects Brahmāstra, Good Bye,Uunchai, Project K, among others films.
