To spice up the battle, Shoojit Sircar was roped in as the referee to help decide the winner in this light-hearted face-off. With his signature mischievous charm, Abhishek Bachchan kickstarted the segment by saying, I'm going to ask you a few tough questions. Let's deviate from KBC today and play, ‘Who's the Better Bachchan!'"

The first question to Shoojit from Abhishek was about punctuality, "Between the two of us, who's more punctual on shoot?" Shoojit, without hesitation, pointed to Big B, saying, "Abhishek is always on time, and that's something he got from you."Amitabh, with his characteristic wit, laughed and quipped, "Ekdum diplomat hai yeh!"

But the main highlight was when Abhishek asked, "Who's cooler between the both of us?" the audience instantly shouted Big B's name, rooting for the legendary star. Abhishek, ever quick with his humour, replied, "Let me settle this. He was part of a song where he rapped a line that goes, ‘Cool ka main school hoon' toh, cool toh yeh hi hai!" He then added with a wink, "Kyunki yeh jahan khade ho jaate hain, line wahi se shuru hoti hain." This engaging father-and-son banter left everyone entertained with their infectious camaraderie.

Abhishek Bachchan's film 'I Want To Talk'

When the trailer of Abhishek's upcoming film, 'I Want to Talk' was launched, it was successful in intriguing the viewers and stirring up a conversation. The film also has a deeper personal meaning for the director Shoojit as Abhishek revealed that it is based on the real-life story of one of his dear friends. The film will be released in theatres on November 22.

Abhishek has had a fair share of ups and downs at the box office with only two films released theatrically in the past six years- 'Manmarziyaan' and 'Ghoomer'. However, the actor has appeared in a lot of OTT projects like, 'Ludo', 'Bob Biswas', 'The Big Bull', 'Dasvi' and 'Breathe Into the Shadows'. The actor will next be seen in an Amazon Prime Video original 'Be Happy', Anurag Basu's 'Gulab Jamun', 'Housefull 5', and in the highly anticipated 'Dhoom' franchise where he will reprise his role.
