Abhishek Bachchan and Bollywood Gandu are the latest to join the list of Twitter wars, and Bachchan's excellent comebacks appear to have earned him some deserving attention (or possibly the closest he has come to delivering a hit in the last few years).
The Bollywood actor got sucked in, when Karan Talwar tweeted this out last night:
Life is not about answers but questions.
Where is my career going?
Am I making enough money?
Why am I still following @juniorbachchan?
— Karan Talwar (@BollywoodGandu) October 28, 2015
Bachchan Jr was quick with his response:
@BollywoodGandu here are the answers: 1. Nowhere 2. For your skill set? Hell yeah! 3. I don’t know. I unfollowed you years ago.

Talwar was not to be silenced:
.@juniorbachchan looks like you and I have a lot in common. Except whatever little I've made of myself - it's without my papas help.
— Karan Talwar (@BollywoodGandu) October 28, 2015
But then again, neither was no-nonsense Bachchan:
@BollywoodGandu wow!!! Great come back buddy. Never heard that before. Ouch!
— Abhishek Bachchan (@juniorbachchan) October 28, 2015
The punches rolled with Abhishek shielding his family (always an obvious fall-back target) from Talwar :
@juniorbachchan what to do, this is why the career has gone nowhere.
— Karan Talwar (@BollywoodGandu) October 28, 2015
@BollywoodGandu and unlike you…. Whatever I am today is because if my family. And am very proud of that.

Sorry guys. I shouldn't have said @juniorbachchan is famous because of his father. It's actually his wife.

Kamaal R Khan clearly felt this would be an opportunity missed for some extra attention:
According to my news @juniorbachchan is going to start best n biggest film of his career soon. And I can say tat it's the right decision.
