Abhishek Bachchan shares unfiltered thoughts on father's role in parenthood

Abhishek Bachchan is sharing unfiltered thoughts on men being unable to express themselves, referring to it as a huge flaw.

During an exclusive interview with Fever FM, Bachchan, known for his role in Dhoom, shared insights on the significance of fathers in parenthood and the importance of emotional expression in relationships.

He told the outlet, “A lot of the time, in general discourse, we forget what a father might be going through. I feel men are not very good at expressing. It’s a huge flaw and we feel that we just need to very silently take on whatever responsibilities or pressures and just get on with it.”

In addition, the Guru actor, who shares daughter Aaradhya with wife Aishwarya Rai, said that although the mother's role in a child's upbringing is unmatched, a father's sacrifices shouldn't be overlooked.

He further went on to add, “While women are the superior race, that shouldn’t have to discount what a father does. And it’s nice, once in a while, to just throw maybe a bit of light that ‘hey, maybe nothing compared to what a mother does, but they do try their best.'”

This comes on the heels of divorce speculation after Abhishek and Aishwarya were spotted attending Ambani's wedding festivities separately back in 2024.

On professional front, the actor is currently gearing up for his upcoming film Be Happy, which revolves around the relationship of a father and daughter.
