Actor Abhishek Bachchan turns thirty eight years old today and to celebrate the occasion, we take a look at his style.

An extensive peek into our archives shows us that Abhishek is partial to formal wear when he steps out in public. He favours black suits and rarely experiments with bright colours.

Here’s Abhishek with his dad, Amitabh Bachchan, and the duo cut dashing figures in formal black. The stubble gives him that rugged look as well.

Abhishek made an appearance in this Rohit Bal sherwani at the latter’s bridal week show in Mumbai last year. The red embroidery on the collar and the red jeweled buttons add just a tinge of hue to this stark yet elegant look.

This appearance with wife Aishwarya is a classic.

In this picture, Abhishek wears a bundhgala jacket with a contrasting red pocket square.

This is one of my favourite looks. I think Abhishek looks really elegant in this white kurta (with his sleeves rolled up) and pajama with a black bundi. Even though the style is so simple, Abhishek manages to carry it off with a lot of grace on his tall and lanky frame.

This is one of the few times Abhishek has experimented with colours and we love this pink jacket over blue jeans combination. This is a look which few men can carry off and Abhishek does it full justice.

Again, Abhishek experiments with a bright colour and while blue velvet might not suit all men, Abhishek rocks this style with aplomb.

This is undoubtedly one of the actor’s most elegant looks and while a black-tie event is a rare occurrence in Bollywood, this one had Abhishek dress to impress.

Ditching the formal suits at a photocall with his pretty wife, Abhishek proves he can easily carry off the biker look with as much elan as a tuxedo.

And finally, when it comes to dressing casual, Abhishek still manages to stay on top of the style charts in a hoodie (with a punk graphic print) and blue jeans.
