After Arjun Kapoor and Janhvi Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor and Harshvardhan Kapoor, the next brother-sister duo to feature on the sixth season of Koffee With Karan are Abhishek Bachchan and Shweta Bachchan. In the last episode of Karan Johar's chat show, we saw Ishaan Khatter and Shahid Kapoor spilling beans on the couch. Siblings make the show a lot more interesting as they reveal tidbits from each other's lives. They even take dig at each other which reminds us of our siblings.
Well, coming back to the latest episode of Koffee With Karan, KJo and the Bachchans siblings have known each other since childhood. In the episode, they talked about their family and shared their childhood anecdotes.
Junior AB and Shweta revealed that their mom is no different from her character in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham when it comes to Abhishek. The actor shared that for his father, Amitabh Bachchan, Shweta is more important than God. “Even if God also comes down, if Shweta Di is there it’s all over! Nothing else matters to him,” he says.
Abhishek Bachchan also talks about his sabbatical and downfall in the career. ''It’s tricky; it’s not the pressure of what was happening...it was more about how I was approaching my work which I thought was incorrect. I was becoming very complacent and unconformable. I was part of huge films, huge budgets, huge stars, huge collections, everything was hunky-dory, I had no pressure as I was standing by the side or behind somebody else who was shouldering all the pressure, and I was making lots of money, those films were making lots of money, it became very easy. With all respect to my all co-stars, I didn’t come to the industry to the stand behind anyone,'' he said.
Shweta Bachchan revealed that she doesn't want her daughter Navya Naveli Nanda to go through the cons of being a Bollywood celebrity. She further adds that the hatred his brother receives on social media is the reason she has advised Navya to stay away. ''I’m on Instagram and I follow my brother and know the hate he gets. Whether you like him as an actor or not, it will bother to me as a sister. I hated it..it gave me sleepless nights and I don’t want yet another member of my family to be in this business for selfish reasons. Firstly, I don’t know what Navya’s talent is. Just because she is related to some famous people, doesn’t mean she has what she takes,'' she says.
During the rapid-fire round, Shweta revealed that her brother was a bed wetter and thumb sucker. On the other hand, Junior AB revealed that Shweta had a huge crush on Aamir Khan when she was a teenager. Later, Aamir used to write letters to Shweta on her birthdays. Sharing another anecdote, the Manmarziyaan actor said that once Shweta was tied up along with Karan to a tree at his party. This happened because the duo didn't follow the cowboy dress code.
The duo also answered why their mother Jaya Bachchan hates paparazzi. Shweta said that it makes her mother feel claustrophobic. Abhishek adds that the veteran actress feels that she looks bad in selfies. Karan Johar also said that paparazzi just say hi to her and let her pass by quietly as they are scared to click her.
