Abhishek, who will celebrate his 35th birthday tomorrow began his career with J.P. Dutta’s ‘Refugee’ (2000). He then went on to give a string poorly received films, but his performances in ‘Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon’ (2003) and Mani Ratnam’s ‘Yuva’ (2004) proved his mettle as an actor.

Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan: Got ‘Power Couple’ Title

Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan: Got ‘Power Couple’ Title: Bollywood’s golden couple Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan have been bestowed with the recognition of ‘Power Couple’ by the esteemed Stardust magazine. The mega stars got the title recently at the launch of the latest issue of Stardust in Delhi. Abhishek and Aishwarya graced the occasion as they lifted the veil off to reveal their own photos as the cover page.

Abhishek and Aishwarya tied the nuptial knot around 4 years back on 20th April, 2007. Since then, the two have had an amazing off-screen chemistry and they always look head over heels in love with each other whenever they are spotted together.

The couple is hugely popular amidst the Bollywood movie lovers. They are big stars and have carved out a niche for themselves in the film industry. Aishwarya Rai leapt into fame after winning the Miss World pageant in 1994. Since then there has been no looking back as she climbed the ladders of fame via her big ticket to the B-town.

Abhishek Bachchan made his Bollywood debut some 10 years back with Refugee. But over the years, he and Aishwarya have starred in a plethora of films. Though the two look spectacular together off-screen, it is ironic that their on-screen chemistry has been mostly ‘thanda’ (cold).

However, in Mani Ratnam’s Guru they, indeed, looked fabulous together and the camaraderie was extremely great. Abhishek and Aishwarya add star value to the Bachchan family that is led by Amitabh Bachchan considered as one of the greatest actors of all times.

Money, popularity, a sea of fan following, films, endorsements, good looks and repute, they have got it all. Hence, it’s no doubt that Abhi-Ash do deserve the ‘Power Couple’ title.

Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek at KHJJS premiere

Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek at KHJJS premiere: Actor Abhishek Bachchan, along with his wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and director Ashutosh Gowarikar, attended a special screening of his recently-released film 'Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey' (KHJJS) here on Sunday evening.

Prior to the screening, the cast interacted with winners of ITC Fiama Di Wills Facebook contest organized to promote the film.

Speaking to the media, Gowarikar said, "I am very much pleased to see the response here. My film is completely based on Manini Chatterjee's book 'Do or Die'.

"As to my imagination, Abhishek resembled the persona of Master Da (Surjyo Sen). We don't have any footage or pictures of Master Da. So I imagined his body language and matched it with Abhishek. And the outcome is in front of you all. In short, the core of this film is the young generation who took revolution to the zenith".

Junior Bachchan sounded very excited on his new on-screen avatar of a freedom fighter.

"Surjyo Sen is a natural hero. But such a great name has almost been forgotten. Sixty-four people showed resistance to the British rule, of which 55 were merely boys," said Abhishek.

"Master Da is an iconic figure and each and every one should know his fight to independence. So to me, Ashutosh Sir has completely done justice by making a film on such a legend. Now the whole of India, rather the whole world will come in terms to what he did for India's independence," he added.

The film is based on Chittagong Uprising of 1930.

After making movies like Lagaan and Jodhaa Akbar, director Ashutosh Gowariker is back with Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey which is based on a book by Manini Chaterjee on Chittagong Uprising of 1930.

On the fateful day of April 18, 1930, with barely 65 people and extremely limited resources, Surya Sen and his revolutionaries attempted the Chittagong armoury raid against a fully trained and equipped military machine of British invaders. The little group took on forces numbering several thousand at police armoury and hoisted there the Indian national flag.

The film is entirely shot in Goa and is scheduled for a worldwide release on 3 December 2010. The music of the movie is composed by Sohail Sen and lyrics are by Javed Akhtar.

Here is the first look and other stills from the film:
