After a series of films which failed to ignite the box office the 37-year-old actor has received plaudits for his double role in the comedy, which also stars Ajay Devgn.

"It's unfair to put that kind of pressure on her! My daughter is separate from my profession and I can't blame her for my success or failure," Masala.com quotes Bachchan as saying.
"She's given Ash and me immense pride and happiness and that's what makes me happy."
The actor also reacted to suggestions that he and wife Aishwarya have been 'hiding' or 'shielding' Araadhya from the glare of public attention, adding: "These words are so generously used… My daughter is not an object to flash around or a prized item to put on display. She's a small baby!"
The Paa actor said that although he hailed from a 'star family' as the son of Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bhaduri Bachchan, his daughter will have a normal upbringing just like he did.
"I didn't realise dad was a star till [I was] in my teens," he explained. "We were not aware [he] was a star till in my teens. We were not aware of mum or dad's celebrity status - mum ensured that."
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan gave birth to the couple's first child on November 16, 2011.
