Abhishek Bachchan stuns fans with raw, pot-bellied look in ‘I Want To Talk’ first poster

The first look of Abhishek Bachchan’s upcoming film I Want To Talk, directed by Shoojit Sircar, has taken social media by storm.

Released recently, the poster reveals a pot-bellied, bespectacled Abhishek in a rather unconventional avatar. Dressed in a loosely tied robe and pajamas, he gazes off-camera, his bare torso and relaxed stance reflecting a relatable, unfiltered side.
