With each new film Abhishek Bachchan tries to take on a new character, one you have never seen from him before. In Ashutosh Gowariker's Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey, Abhishek is Surjya Sen, a calm, simple school teacher who became one of India's greatest freedom fighters.

He has brought us epic tales of cricket, of coming home, and of an emperor and his wife to the silver screen. For his next film, he is shining the light on a little known uprising that would change the fate of a country. That director is Ashutosh Gowariker and that uprising is the story of Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey.

Kolkata had a date with Abhishek, Deepika and Ashutosh Gowarikar- Recently the city of joy—Kolkata had a wonderful date with Abhishek Bachchan, Deepika Padukone and Ashutosh Gowarikar as the trio had arrived the city to promote their upcoming film “Khelein Hum Jee Jaa Sey”.

Abhishek Bachchan, who recently appeared as the chief guest at a Hollywood classic film festival, told the audience that he has grown up watching Hollywood classic films and has learnt a lot from those films.

Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Delhi 6, which won two National Awards, was submitted to the National Awards jury with an alternative ending which the general public has not seen so far.

In the ending that we saw for Delhi 6 when it opened in February 2009, Abhishek Bachchan's character survives after being wounded. In the alternative which the National awards committee saw, Abhishek's character dies.

Actor Abhishek Bachchan says he is glad that he didn't have to look down at Deepika Padukone while shooting Ashutosh Gowariker's 'Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey', because she is the 'tallest' actress to have appeared with him till date.

Actor Abhishek Bachchan is certain that it's difficult to match the performance of his father Amitabh Bachchan in Agneepath, but he has high hopes from Hrithik Roshan who is playing the iconic Vijay Dinanath Chauhan in the cult film's remake.
