Abhishek Bachchan recently talked about his experience working with director Shoojit Sircar on the upcoming film I Want To Talk. Shoojit, known for making films like Piku, is famous for creating deep, meaningful stories. Abhishek shared how working with him was a special experience that changed him in many ways.
At the music launch of I Want To Talk, Abhishek talked about his role and the physical changes he went through for the film. He mentioned that he was lucky to work with Shoojit, saying, “There’s always a huge beeline outside his office because the experience of making a film with him is very transformative. Not just physically, from what you see.”
He pointed to the movie poster, where he appears with a big belly, and said, “I’m not in this shape anymore.” He confirmed that the belly in the poster was real, not a prosthetic, and explained that he had gained weight for the role. He called the experience “life-changing” and said, “But it’s been a learning experience. It’s been life-changing. And I hope that we’ve managed to make a bit of a difference to your two, three hours that you spend in the cinema or watching the film. We’ve worked hard. It’s a very sincere effort.”

Abhishek also praised Shoojit’s unique way of making films. He explained that Shoojit’s style is very different from the usual commercial films in the industry, calling it a “breath of fresh air.” He said that it’s nice to sometimes stop and feel emotions, rather than just watching a movie without thinking.
Abhishek also shared that the film has a personal meaning for Shoojit, revealing that the story is based on a very dear friend of his. The film, with its sincere effort, has already become a project to look forward to.
