Rightly Abhishek Bachchan and his better-half flew back to Mumbai after attending the opening ceremony of the Cannes film festival.
It happened because they wanted to be home in time to hear the election results, thereby giving the skip to the big Bollywood party held by the Committee Of Indian Industries hosted by the flamboyant Vijay Mallya on Saturday night for the Bollywood delegates at Cannes.
Says Abhishek, “It’s a crucial election for us. And we wanted to be here when the results came in.”
