It's Chalo Miami, for Bachchan parivar

The Bachchans plan to bring in Jaya’s birthday with Abhishek, who is shooting there for Dostana

The Bachchans are planning a trip to Miami. We are told they have two good reasons to make their first holiday abroad after the big wedding. Firstly, it’s Jaya Bachchan’s birthday on April 9 and the family wants to be together to bring it in. Secondly, Abhishek who’s shooting in Miami for Tarun Mansukhani’s Dostana with John Abraham and Priyanka Chopra, is feeling homesick.

A source reveals, “The Bachchans want to spend stime with Abhishek. He really hasn’t been able to spend much time with his mom and dad. Before leaving for Miami, he was busy with Rakeysh Mehra’s Dilli 6 in Jaipur. Even though Ash joined him on his schedule, he still missed the company of his parents. With Amitabh, Jaya and Ash joining him in Miami, he will feel totally at home.”

Bachchan confirmed that he indeed was planning such a trip. However, he refused to term it as a vacation. “It’s no holiday, just a short visit. Abhishek has been away for long and isn’t due back soon either.” About there being a celebration for Jaya, he added, “We will bring it in. There won’t be a celebration.”

However, there won’t be a big party or any big celebration this time around due to the demise of Abhishek’s grandmom Teji Bachchan. “It’s just going to be a family affair. There won’t be a party of any sort. Last time they had all flown down to Jaipur to bring in Abhishek’s birthday when he was shooting in Jaipur. The Bachchan’s are a close knit family and definitely like to make birthdays and anniversaries as memorable as possible.”
