The ‘Unforgettable’ Bachchan concert tour featuring Amitabh, Abhishek and Aishwarya (Jaya is being coaxed for a friendly appearance) will begin this July. Speaking about her first family, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan said, “Yes, it’s on in July and August. It’s wonderful to be on stage with Abhishek and Pa. I remember how wonderful it was when we did Kajra re at the IIFA awards two years ago. That one act featuring the three of us was a rock concert by itself. It was fantastic! Now going on stage as Amitji’s daughter-in-law and Abhishek’s wife would make it doubly fantastic.” The announcement puts an end to speculation regarding the financial and creative feasibility of this celebration of family bonhomie. Hrithik Roshan and Akshay Kumar were supposed to join the Bachchans on the tour but opted out due to lack of time. Now the final list of actors joining the Bachchans includes Bipasha Basu, Lara Dutta and Riteish Deshmukh. Though Jaya isn’t much of a dancer, the Bachchan clan loves to groove together. “You know, we really do have a good time on stage. I’ve watched pa’s earlier concerts, and I’ve seen how he rivets the audience. Even now when he chooses to go on stage once in a while, he truly has a blast. Abhishek has a party on stage. All three of us love live concerts,” Aishwarya said. Elaborating on the role that senior Mrs Bachchan would play, Ash had a rather cryptic answer. “Ma loves to have fun and is very good at making others have fun. So just wait and watch,” gushed Ash. We are doing just that!
