Abhishek Bachchan Enters Guinness Book:

Actor Abhishek Bachchan had a tiring day on 22/02/09 Sunday, but one that has saw him make a world record. He has made a new record of maximum public appearances in different cities. Abhishek Bachchan's marathon seven-city promotional tour for the movie Delhi-6 kept the security staff busy in managing his fans and led to some moviegoers missing their films but the actor exuded confidence in getting his name listed in the record books.




As the actor rushed from one city to another in his attempt to get the feedback of audiences in different cinema halls, his fans were there all the time. In an interview, Abhishek told the reporters that "It is really exciting to get first hand response about your movie. The cinema halls were running packed wherever I went."His target cities were Ghaziabad, Noida, Delhi, Gurgaon, Faridabad, Chandigarh and Mumbai.

The actor reached a Noida cinema 10 minutes before schedule only to see a over 500-strong crowd gathering around the hall, literally threatening to disrupt the event. Though Bachchan had initially planned to interact with the audience, he had to rush out within 10 minutes.Many of the moviegoers were also caught in the crowd and missed their show as the tight security made their entry difficult.

The current record-holder in the category of the greatest number of public appearances by a film star at different cities in 12 hours promoting the same film is five by Jorgen Vogel and Daniel Brohl (Germany). They walked the red carpet, signed autographs and introduced the film Ein Freund von mir (Germany 2006) at cinemas in Munich, Berlin, Hamburg, Dusseldorf and Cologne, Germany, on Oct 22, 2006. They were accompanied by the director of Ein Freund von mir Sebastian Schipper.
