Abhishek Bachchan, currently enjoying praise for 'Kaalidhar Laapata' and celebrating 25 years in Hindi cinema, has consciously reduced his social media presence. He now primarily uses it for professional updates, expressing a desire to maintain the on-screen illusion for his audience.

Abhishek Bachchan is garnering praise for his recent release, 'Kaalidhar Laapata,' which premiered on July 4th. The actor, who previously starred in 'Housefull 5' and recently celebrated 25 years in the Hindi film industry, recently discussed his decreased activity on social media in an interview with ETimes. He stated that he now primarily uses social media for professional updates regarding his films.

Abhishek Bachchan explains his limited social media presence.

When asked about his reserved nature, Bachchan replied, "Publicly, yes. I don't express much off-screen. I express on screen. Do you want to know how I feel? Go watch my movie. I don't want to know what actors are like when they're not acting. I genuinely don't. I'm not interested. I'm interested in what they're doing on screen. Don't shatter that illusion for me."

Addressing his limited social media presence, he explained, "Partially yes, and also I feel currently, sadly, and I'm the first person who used to say if you can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen but I just feel a lot of social media is just about baiting. It's not a place where you can have a healthy discussion. When it first started you could have a healthy debate or discourse with somebody. Now it's not that. I use it more professionally now." He emphasizes the shift from constructive dialogue to provocative engagement as a key reason for his change in approach.

Bachchan is currently filming 'King,' a project that his father, Amitabh Bachchan, announced on social media on the first day of filming. The film features Shah Rukh Khan, Suhana Khan, and reportedly, Deepika Padukone.
