Abhishek Bachchan has never been one to shy away from standing his ground, and his latest response to a social media critic proves exactly that. The actor took to his X account and replied back gracefully to a critic who accused him of buying awards and using his PR team to help him win awards. This comes weeks after the actor won a Best Actor award for his performance in the film I Want To Talk directed by Shoojit Sircar.
