Scoop: Abhishek raps again!

Abhishek BachchanMove over Will Smith, Abhishek Bachchan is taking over.

After the sensational buzz caused by his Bluffmaster hip hop track Right here right now, AB jr is getting into the groove again.

The new song, which is likely to be called A-B-H-I to the shakin', has also been crafted by Vishal-Shekhar (who composed Right here right now) and features Sunidhi Chauhan.

The track, for a yet-untitled film, has already been recorded, and someone who has heard it said, "It's definitely groovier than the Bluffmaster song. It's an actual rap and very groovy -- the female vocals are like borderline Missy Elliot."

As opposed to Right here right now, this one also features more 'singing', and is a duet between Abhishek and Sunidhi.

Sunidhi has a busy and extremely high-profile year ahead of her, as she is lending her voice to films like Don, Dhoom 2, Umrao Jaan, Krrish and Fanaah.

Abhishek's 2006 kitty includes Kabhi Alvidaa Na Kehna, Dhoom 2 and Umrao Jaan.

It is unlikely that the new rap will fit into either of these three, so let's wait for more news of Bollywood's coolest rapper.
