Abhishek Bachchan's latest film, 'I Want To Talk,' marks his return to the silver screen and has received significant praise from audiences.

Critics have lauded Abhishek's performance in the film, leading to comparisons with the late actor Irrfan Khan, and many reviews suggest this role may be his career best.

Despite the critical acclaim, the film had a disappointing box office opening, earning only ₹25 lakh on its first day, one of the lowest in Bachchan's career.

In an interview, Abhishek described the film as a potential 'rebirth' for his acting career, emphasizing the importance of reinventing oneself with each role.

He highlighted the necessity of avoiding repetition and the importance of trying new things with every film.

Abhishek referred to actors as 'pampered puppets,' stressing the need to trust and submit to directors like Shoojit Sircar to fully realize their vision.

He explained that Sircar encourages actors to 'just be' rather than to act, often spending months preparing them for their roles.

Director Shoojit Sircar praised Abhishek's disciplined approach, noting that he fully surrendered to the role of 'Arjun' in the film.

Sircar expressed admiration for Abhishek, stating he sees more of Jaya Bachchan in him than Amitabh, particularly in his mannerisms and purity of expression.

Sircar emphasized the importance of avoiding repetition in performances and exploring new avenues, while acknowledging that actors bring a part of themselves to their characters.

During the film's music launch, Abhishek shared personal experiences and lessons learned while working with Shoojit Sircar.

Humorously, Abhishek mentioned the challenges of maintaining fitness at his age after undergoing a physical transformation for the role, clarifying that his large belly was a result of his dedication.
