The revelation of Abhishek Bachchan’s next being a slice-of-life drama comes at a time when the actor is facing rumours of a possible separation from his wife, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

To the uninitiated, the rumours started when the couple didn’t attend Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding together in Mumbai. A few days later, after the wedding, Junior B liked a divorce related post which made people on social media speculate that things had truly gone sour between the couple. However, so far, these are all rumours as there is no confirmation regarding the separation or rumours.

Along with Shoojit Sircar’s movie, Abhishek Bachchan is also a part of Remo D’Souza’s Be Happy. AB will reportedly play a villain in Sujoy Ghosh’s King, which also stars Shah Rukh Khan and Suhana Khan.
