Abhishek Bachchan: ‘The decision to leave ‘Paltan’ destroyed me’

Abhishek Bachchan, who was slated to star in JP Dutta’s war drama Paltan before he walked out of the film, finally opened up about it while at the Jagran Cinema Summit.

Abhishek said, “Yes, I was a part of Paltan but had to walk out of it due to certain circumstances and the decision destroyed me because I always felt that I have let down or disappointed JP saab by walking out of the film. He was my first director and I still feel bad that I could not do the film. But having said that, my relationship with JP saab is so full of love and respect that I believe a film cannot come in the way of that.”

Abhishek was last seen sharing screen space with Taapsee Pannu and Vicky Kaushal in Anurag Kashyap’s Manmarziyaan.
