Coming from one of the most popular 'filmy' families, Abhishek Bachchan made a much hyped debut with ‘Refugee’ in the year 2000. While his first few films flopped badly at the B.O., trade pundits felt that Abhishek is the proverbial 'lambi race ka ghoda'. The tall and good-looking actor proved that he has it in him with a super-duper performance in Mani Ratnam's ‘Yuva’.

AB Jr. (as he is fondly known as) then followed it up with some really memorable performances in films like ‘Bunty aur Babli’, ‘Sarkar’, ‘Bluffmaster’, ‘Guru’ and recently ‘Dostana’. His marriage with former Miss World Aishwarya Rai in the year 2007 will probably go down as the most talked about weddings in Bollywood.

As Abhishek turns a year older (or should we say younger) today, you can join us in wishing AB Jr. a very Happy Birthday by posting your comments below.
