Totally imbibed the character from the body language to every expression. Nailed it! One of my favourite performances of yours! Congrats to you & the team @kookievgulati."

Abhishek is known to respond to his critics online. He said in a recent interview that by attacking him, they open themselves up for attack as well. "It's fair game," he said.

Recently, when a person described The Big Bull as a 'disappointment', the actor wrote that he will 'work harder' next time. Before that, when one person had called him a 'third rate actor', Abhishek had written back, "Hey man, as long as I’ve not disappointed you, I’m happy. Thank you for taking the time out to see our film."

Abhishek has been fielding comparisons to actor Pratik Gandhi, who played Harshad in the critically acclaimed streaming series Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story, which released on SonyLIV last year.
