About Abhishek Bachchan in Breathe: Into The Shadows

Breathe: Into The Shadows featured Abhishek Bachchan as a dual personality – Avinash and his alter ego, J. While one personality was that of an ideal family man, the other was about him seeking revenge for all the wrong done to him over the years. Although Avinash appeared to be the perfect human, he hid a deep secret in the form of J. The latter sought out his targets and killed them in ways that could be tagged as horror stories if they would be real-life.
