Farhan Akhtar had taken a jibe at Abhishek Bachchan and other star kids' privilege in a 2008 show, and the clip has been going viral.
Bollywood filmmaker-turned-actor, Farhan Akhtar has always been known for cracking jokes and living life to the fullest. A video of him from his 2008 show, Oye It's Friday, has been going viral. In the clip, Farhan could be seen taking a dig at Abhishek Bachchan (who was a guest on his show) and other star kids' privileges, way before the nepotism debate by Kangana Ranaut made headlines.
Recently, we stumbled upon a video of Farhan Akhtar, wherein he was seen roasting Abhishek Bachchan. The clip is from his talk show, which was shot in 2008. In the video, Farhan shared how he is going to give five tips to spot a star kid. He stated that every third film of a star kid is their launch film, which left Abhishek Bachchan a bit embarrassed, and he kept laughing. It looked like a dig at Abhishek's films trajectory.

Earlier, a Reddit user shared a cutesy video of Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's old interview with BBC. In the clip, Abhishek was seen heaping praises on Aishwarya while she was clinched on him. The couple looked madly in love, and Abhishek expressed how 'beautiful is the tag that is constantly attached with Aishwarya. However, not much emphasis is given to how amazing an actress she has been. The video started with Abhishek expressing that he is protective of his wife. He said:
"I am being protective of my wife, my beautiful wife."
Abhishek further added how people always associate his wife with 'good looks' and 'very plastic'. The actor stated that she had done some of the most daring kinds of roles. Taking the example of Aishwarya's movie, Raincoat, Abhishek stated that her role had no makeup on, and she was dressed shabbily, and it takes a lot of guts, but that has never been noticed. Abhishek also admired Aishwarya's work in Jodhaa Akbar and her pairing opposite Hrithik Roshan.
