Bhagyashree on son Abhimanyu’s debut: ‘He stood in lines, gave auditions without ever revealing who he is’

While Abhimanyu claims he did not get the coverage and buzz most star kids get for their debut, mom Bhagyashree says the family got to know about Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota only after he bagged it.

Bollywood actor Bhagyashree has claimed son and actor Abhimanyu Dassani, who made his debut with Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota, did not bag his first film like a star kid and rather earned it after giving auditions.

Abhimanyu Dassani was widely appreciated for his performance in his debut film, Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota.

Speaking with Mumbai Mirror in an interview, Bhagyashree said, “He stood in lines and gave auditions without ever revealing who he is. We only came to know about MKDNH after he’d signed the film.”

Bhagyashree also revealed her son began cooking early in life. He used to cook, as a teenager, to impress girls, the Maine Pyar Kiya star has said. Revealing the fun fact about the young actor, Bhagyashree added, “He started cooking as a teenager so he could impress girls.”

About bagging films after his critically acclaimed debut, Abhimanyu had told PTI in February, “I didn’t take a film till Mard Ko released and so there was a delay in the next film. I have been choosy in selecting films. I don’t want to be blocked or be put in any box. Nikamma is a commercial-action thriller, while Aankh Micholi is a family comedy.”

Abhimanyu has a variety of films in the pipeline - action entertainer Nikamma with Shirley Setia and Shilpa Shetty; and ensemble family comedy Aankh Micholi, alongside Paresh Rawal, Sharman Joshi and Mrunal Thakur.
