Why Abhishek Bachchan is on every ‘India’s Most Stylish’ list

...and no, it has nothing to do with his dad!

Tom Ford once said, “Dressing well is a form of good manners.” If this is anything to go by, Abhishek Bachchan is very well-mannered. He shows up at our interview on time, pressed and dressed, in the company of – and clad in a bespoke suit by – his Savile Row tailor, Paul Jheeta. Before settling down to chat, Abhishek unapologetically proclaims, “I am a huge admirer of suits. And I have no qualms. If you give me something to wear for sheer comfort, if it wasn’t a tracksuit, it would have to be a suit.” With his unmistakable sense of humour and boyish grin, he tells me, “I could even sleep in a suit, if I had to.”
