When John Abraham refused to work with Kangana Ranaut

The dashing John Abraham had refused to work with newcomer Kangana Ranaut in two films.

John who himself was a model had a tough time to break into the film industry and later on when he had carved a niche for himself, was supposedly apprehensive to work with Kangana.

But John has also worked alongside other new actresses, like Udita Goswami in Paap . Or perhaps John was well aware of Kangana’s capabilities and was afraid of being overshadowed by the actress.

John refused to work opposite Kangana in Imtiaz Ali’s Rock Star and Anurag Kashyap’s No Smoking .

In Bollywood often the hero and his preferences are always taken into consideration first hence even though Kashyap was keen to work with Kangana, John’s decision forced him to opt for the buxom Ayesha Takia instead.

However the forthright and sprightly Kangana Ranaut says, “I’ve no idea whether John wants to work with me or not. I’m too busy working with those who want to work with me than to worry about those who don’t. It’s true that Anurag who’s a dear friend was keen to have me in his film. I’ve no idea what happened but I’m sure we’ll work together in the future.”

However Kangana too has had her share of disagreements with her co-star Shiney Ahuja who was seen opposite her in Gangster and Who Lamhe . Though Shiney and Kangana share amazing on-screen chemistry, off-screen the two actors barely acknowledge each other.
