Abhishek: No song-n-dance with Vivek



The makers of Mission Istanbul have been desperately trying to promote their venture, right from the days of its filming. One of the many types of bait thrown to lure the unsuspecting audience was that Abhishek Bachchan will dance along with Vivek Oberoi for an item number in this action based film. Now, who will not want to watch Aishwarya Rai’s ex-lover and current husband shaking a leg together? Just imagine the hype that could possibly rise courtesy some alleged tiff they had while shooting?

Unfortunately (or otherwise?), at a recent event, Abhi cleared the air of all the rumours of an item number with Vivek. Considering that Apoorva Lakhia and Abhishek are close friends, the denial was indeed surprising. So was Apoorva just taking advantage of his closeness with the Bachchans? Here is what Abhishek said: “Apoorva considers me as a lucky mascot for his film. When he approached me, I did agree to do a song in the film. However, I have no idea if I’ll be sharing screen space with any other actor. I’d be more than happy to do it with anybody.” There, the Bachchan brat wriggled his way out of this one too!
