Actor Abhishek Bachchan has responded to a Twitter user who suggested that the actor is popular because of the family he belongs to and not his skills as a performer. The Twitter user, in his argument, compared the follower count of Abhishek with actor Prachi Desai.

Tagging Kangana Ranaut, PM Narendra Modi and a fake account of TV anchor Arnab Goswami, the user wrote in his tweet, �OUTSIDER VS NEPOTISM. @ItsPrachiDesai 1.3M followers. @juniorbachchan 15.3M followers. And you guys are expecting good from #Bollywood. I mean How? Its high time that we should start appreciating and supporting #talent.�

Abhishek replied, �I assure you Mr Singhal the amount of followers you have on social media is by no means a barometer of acceptance or popularity or talent. My friend @ItsPrachiDesai is a very talented actor and doesn�t need social media to endorse that. Her work speaks for itself.� When another person noted that Abhishek�s fans follow him on social media voluntarily, the actor wrote, �Absolutely.�
