<p><br />Junior Bachchan has a history of battling the trolls. In June last year, a Twitter user shared a meme that joked about how Aaradhya would not like his movies such as 'Drona' and 'Jhoom Barabar Jhoom' and wonder why her mother, Aishwarya, married him. Abhishek, who is known to take humour in the right spirit, hit back at the troll for dragging his little daughter into the picture. <strong>(<span style="color: #ff0000;"><a title="Read Abhishek Bachchan's fitting reply to the troll" href="http://www.mid-day.com/articles/abhishek-bachchan-gives-a-fitting-reply-to-a-troll-on-twitter/16298168" target="_blank"><span style="color: #ff0000;">Read Abhishek Bachchan's fitting reply to the troll</span></a></span>)</strong></p>
