It’s always a treat when a proud parent beams about their child, especially when both happen to be titans of the entertainment world. Lately, legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan has been a one-man marketing machine for his son, Abhishek Bachchan, and his latest film, “Kaalidhar Laapata.” Big B’s social media feeds, from Facebook to Instagram and X (formerly Twitter), are bursting with messages praising Abhishek’s work.
This past Sunday, Amitabh shared a particularly heartfelt post on Instagram. He uploaded a photo of Abhishek, accompanying it with words that warmed many hearts. “My pride and my boundless love,” he wrote. “You are beautifully earning your well-deserved praise and recognition, all on your own terms.” He then added a powerful line that stuck with many fans: “Kaalidhar may get lost, but Abhishek will never be lost from our hearts.” It’s clear that this father’s affection and admiration know no bounds.
“Kaalidhar Laapata” is certainly making waves since its release on July 4th. Viewers can stream this intriguing film on Zee5. Directed by Madhumita, the movie features a strong ensemble cast. Alongside Abhishek Bachchan, you’ll see talented actors like Daivik Bhagela, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, and Nimrat Kaur.
The story itself offers a unique blend of drama and heart. Abhishek plays the title character, Kaalidhar, a man living with Alzheimer’s disease. His family, sadly, seems more interested in his wealth than his well-being. In a cruel twist, they abandon him at the vast Kumbh Mela. It’s here that Kaalidhar finds an unlikely companion in Ballu, an eight-year-old boy. This unexpected friendship sparks a new outlook for Kaalidhar, offering a fresh perspective on life. Early responses from the audience have been quite positive, praising the film’s emotional depth and performances.
