However, Abhishek Bachchan, is blissed out over a real life game hero. The star, a huge fan of basketball legend Earvin 'Magic' Johnson is reeling from a surprise on the micro blogging site in response to his tweet to the American sportsman.
Bachchan Junior, the proud possessor of two jerseys signed by the basketball ace, got the opportunity to connect with his idol on social networking site. Jr. Bachchan, who's been rather taciturn about his likes and dislikes going public, was hesitant to tweet to Johnson. Close sources urged him to and he was still contemplating whether or not he should...when the final bit of influence came from spouse Aishwarya.
A convinced Abhishek tweeted across a simple message stating what a great fan he was of the sports star. Disbelief in full measure struck him like a thunderbolt when Johnson tweeted right back stating that he was a huge fan of Abhishek himself!
Seemingly, the stunned actor threw an spontaneous party in a fit of happiness. A classic joke in the Bachchan household goes that if you give Abhishek an Amitabh Bachchan classic film and a recording of a Magic Johnson game, you've lost him for the entire day!
A close source said, "Abhishek still cannot believe that Magic said that he was his fan. He has been bragging about it to all his friends at the party that he threw."
Expressing his delight Abhishek adds in a magazine quote that he's been "a fanatic of Johnson right since childhood" and that bagging such a compliment from him is "a dream come true."
And yeah, he also writes... that he's going right back to ironing those two Johnson jerseys...
