Bollywood star Amitabh Bachchan has rejected the idea to work his son Abhishek Bachchan.
The reason is said to be behind it, Big B wanted to work with a fresh face this time.
According to the latest reports Director Sujoy Ghosh wanted to cast Abhishek in the movie Aladin, in which Big-B is playing the lead role.
The flick is based on the Arabian tale of Aladin and Genie. Reports said further that, though, Amitabh rejected the idea of working with his son but he wanted to get the role to Riteish Deshmukh.
Before this, Sujoy narrated the script to Amitabh and after that the superstar requested him not to cast Abhishek in the role.

Oh really. I Think Amitabh dont want people say that Abhishek is in the industry due to his father’s PR and he want to see abhi getting success on the basis of his own talent and struggle.
This is something that is called “favoring the merit”. I think that role requires ritish but not Abhi. Big B is not unnecessarily favoring his own son. Thats why he is not only a great actor but a great man also.
