John Abraham amongst world's sexiest men

2008-11-03T11:02:00.000-08:00

Bollywood hunk John Abraham has been voted as the only Indian among the world’s 25 sexiest men in a poll.

The poll was conducted by E News, a Hollywood network viewed in 600 million homes worldwide.

The well-sculpted body of John has paved his way for a world ranking in the midst of other hot bods. The list includes soccer star David Beckham, Jonathan Rhys Meyers of ‘Bend It Like Beckham’ fame, along with the ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean’ star Johnny Depp, and New Zealand rugby player Dan Carter.

Right now, John is in Philadelphia busy with his shoot of Yashraj Films’ New York , and he thinks that his smile scores higher than his body because “six packs cannot substitute for honesty in face.”

The actor believes that George Clooney is the sexiest man alive because at 47 he doesn’t hide his age and flaunts it while looking good, unlike Bollywood actors who try to look young.

John’s appeal is not only about brawns but also brain and heart. He is an active PETA activist and an eco-warrior who confesses shyly that his individuality makes him a winner.

The poll was about “the sexiest, scorching, beach-bound hard-bodies” and we also cast our vote in John’s favor.

Right girls!

John Abraham's masti on streets of Morocco

2007-05-02T07:22:00.000-07:00

It is a languid sunny afternoon in the streets of Morocco. Enjoying his anonymity, John Abraham, sunglasses perched on his head, lazily strolls along, taking in the sights and sounds of a fruit market.

The market is like a fantasy, filled with fresh, colourful fruits of every imaginable type being sold by dark-haired kohl-eyed beauties.

John looks in no hurry to be anywhere else.

He stops at the nearest apple cart. He gestures to the beautiful woman to pack him a few.

She gives him the polite, professional smile and starts to pick out the fruits.

As he waits, he lowers his sunglasses onto his face.

Suddenly the woman drops the apples, vaults over her cart towards him, dramatically drapes herself around him and coos, “Bachao!”

Before a startled John can react, another beauty comes running down the street, leaps over the fallen apples, hides behind his back and whimpers “Bachao!”

He turns around in confusion. A third beautiful woman, cycling by, shouts “Bachao!”

Soon, heavily accented cries of “Bachao” from beautiful damsels in distress around him fill the air:

A woman hiding behind a lamp post; s woman walking her dog; a woman on a terrace overlooking the market; women from the other fruit stalls; vendors; customers; passers by!

John is in a daze. Confused onlookers look at him strangely. He shrugs at them. He has no idea why these women need saving and what he can do to help.

He takes his sunglasses off and looks around.

Suddenly the woman who started it all, the apple vendor, holds her wrist to her forehead (Nargis style) and whines “Naheeeeeen!

She goes back to her apple cart. The cries stop. The women disperse. Life is back to normal.

A knowing smile crosses his face as the gag dawns on him. He looks at the camera, shakes his head and mutters, “Heroines!”

Salman Khan doesn't want to work with John Abraham!

2007-04-02T12:58:00.000-07:00

Though Salman Khan is a man of golden heart, once he strikes someone’s name off his good books, there seems to be no rethinking for him.

It is no secret that Salman Khan and John Abraham do not get along well with each other. The reports of animosity between them cropped after they returned from the Rockstars concert last year. Then there were also rumours that the vibes between Salman and John were quite cold while working in Ravi Chopra’s movie Baabul . Even filmmaker Nikhil Advani made sure not to touch the sensitive issue and kept no scenes featuring Salman and John together in his movie Salaam-e-Ishq .

The so-called rivalry between the two stars has so far remained somewhat subdued and has not come out in the open yet. But Salman seems to be having second thoughts about doing Rituparno Ghosh’s remake of the 1962 classic ‘Sahib Biwi Aur Ghulam’ for which Ghosh has finalized Salman, John and Priyanka Chopra .

In the remake, Salman is supposed to play an alcoholic zamindar who prefers the company of courtesans than his beautiful wife, to be played by Priyanka Chopra. John is supposed to play the role of the servant who gets to know the inner suffering of the zamindar’s wife and share her loneliness.

The fact that Ghosh will be directing this timeless classic makes it a precious project. But reports have it that Salman is reluctant to work with John in Sahib Biwi Aur Ghulam .

The film’s producer Pritish Nandy is not willing to comment about any casting changes in the movie. However, he does assert that the movie will indeed be made.

Just a few weeks back, we had reported that Salman has opted out of Boney Kapoor’s movie Milenge Milenge because he did not want to work with its hero Shahid Kapur . Salman and Shahid, too, apparently had a spat during a concert.

John Abraham to play a mountain climber

2007-03-30T18:44:00.000-07:00

John Abraham is gearing up for some spunky stuff on the silver screen.

It is common knowledge that John is nowadays shooting for Vivek Agnihotri’s movie Goal in London. He plays a football player in the film. Even though the film’s shooting may continue till mid May, John is learnt to have agreed to act in director Soham Shah ’s next movie also.

John was one of the stars of Soham’s movie Kaal which was produced by Karan Johar’s production company. However, Soham is no longer working under Karan now.

Like ‘Kaal’, Soham’s next movie will also be an adventure thriller. It is learnt that John will play a mountain climber in it.

It is a little known fact that John is a trained mountain climber. Although he has been out of practice for sometime now, he will brush up his climbing skills before shooting the film.

John is quoted as saying that he wants to cultivate a sporty image in Bollywood films.

John Abraham, Vidya Balan in an intense love story

2007-03-30T18:41:00.000-07:00

There is hardly any doubt that John Abraham and Vidya Balan make a good romantic couple on the silver screen.

The simmering, scintillating chemistry between John and Vidya was quite visible in Nikhil Advani’s movie Salaam-e-Ishq . Although the movie flopped at the box-office, John and Vidya arguably were the most passionate couple in the film.

Now, an upcoming filmmaker wants to make his directorial debut with a film starring John and Vidya in romantic roles. Vikram Motwane has been an assistant of Sanjay Leela Bhansali and has worked as choreographer in Deepa Mehta’s film Water .

For nearly two years, Motwane has reportedly been working on a script with writer Bhavani Iyer, and has been looking for a producer to finance the film. After many unsuccessful attempts, Motwane has now found producers.

Filmmaker Nikhil Advani and producer Mukesh Talreja will co-produce Motwane’s film under their banner Orion Films.

Nikhil says the reason why he decided to back the project is because he liked the movie’s script and Motwane’s credentials. Moreover, the film’s dialogues are written by Anurag Kashyap .

Motwane had reportedly spoken about this movie with John while working in ‘Water’ and the latter had shown interest. Later, when Motwane approached Vidya Balan, she too agreed to act in the movie.

Vidya and John apparently share a very good working relationship. They got along very well while shooting together for ‘Salaam-e-Ishq’.

Although they have to yet formally sign Motwane’s film, they are learnt to have given a verbal commitment to the project.

John Abraham's sporting skills put to test

2007-03-20T10:38:00.000-07:00

John Abraham is less nervous and more excited about the fact that his sporting skills are being put to their ultimate test.

The handsome actor is presently in London, shooting for Vivek Agnihotri’s movie Goal in which he plays a footballer.

Before shooting the film John and his co-star Arshad Warsi underwent rigorous training in football under the guidance of former English Premiere league footballer Andy Ansah.

And now, when the shooting is on, John’s footballing skills are being put to test because eight of the eleven players in his team (in the film) are actual football players and John has to stand out from them because of his role in the movie.

But John is not intimidated by the presence of real footballers in his team. Football is his favourite game and he has been playing it since childhood. He is quite skilled in dribbling, nudging and kicking the ball.

John says he is “overexcited” while shooting the film. Even his ladylove Bipasha Basu is beside him.

John himself is a smoker too

2007-03-05T19:51:00.000-08:00

The nation is facing a rather strange dilemma. To smoke or not to smoke, that's the question. And with his penchant for adapting Shakespeare who better equipped to portray this dilemma than Vishal Bharadwaj.

Moving ahead of Omkara, Vishal has produced an entire film on anti-smoking which will star John Abraham.

Says Vishal, "When Anurag Kashyap came to me with the script I was immediately hooked. I've always wanted to make a film against smoking. And this is a great script. Kumar Mangat (who produced Omkara) co-produced No Smoking with me."

When John Abraham showed an interest in the project Vishal met the actor. "John himself is an occasional smoker. He identified with the project. I think it's right to make a film against smoking if you believe in the cause.

To simply go around issuing warnings or giving Adults certificates to films showing smoking serves no purpose. We need to take a more mature view of the matter. I feel very strong about the issue and decided to produce a film."

The story of a man (Abraham) trying to quit smoking will be put across in an entertaining and non-judgemental fashion.

In the meanwhile, Vishal is working on his next directorial venture which will be co-produced jointly by UTV and Vishal. "I've an idea that I'm developing right now. It's not based on Shakespeare this time. But I'll definitely return to Shakespeare again."

The shooting is likely to begin by mid-Feb and will continue for two months. After that John will return India to work in Nagesh Kukunoor’s next movie Aashayein .

Busy months ahead for John.

I don't consciously project cool image: John Abraham

2007-01-10T23:31:00.000-08:00

Bollywood's latest pinup boy John Abraham, who has brought out a calendar of his own images for 2007, denies that he is making a conscious effort to market a "cool image".

"Let me state once and for all, I've done nothing to consciously project a cool image. Whether it's the motorbikes or brand endorsements, I do what comes naturally to me," John told IANS.

"I feel there's an overt attempt to portray oneself as cool in our industry. But to try to be cool is very un-cool. If there's a cool-quotient to your personality, it will show up without your trying," he added.

John said the calendar was a no-profit venture.

"Whether it's my own brand of clothes or me serving as a brand ambassador for a mo-bike, I guess I've been forging my own style of self-projection. The calendar is an idea that, to my knowledge, hasn't been done by any other actor. It'll contain only my images. Does that seem slightly narcissistic?

"It is actually nothing more than a humble exercise in public relations. The calendar with my pictures shot by Subi Samuel will be sent to people whom I know and would like to reach out to at the beginning of the year. It's a no-profit venture," stressed John.

Does John belong to the cool-school?

Send Salaam-e-Ishq - Ecards"When I was doing an endorsement for my clothesline, someone said, 'cool is John Abraham'. It's interesting. But they would look at the clothes and say, 'this is very John Abraham'. I felt flattered. When you get branded with a certain image that defines your cool-quotient, I think it's very cool."

To John cool is..."the movies that you do, the clothes you wear or not wear and the company you keep".

John is good at both the dressed and undressed variety of cool. "Good, na? Because sometimes you may not get the proper designer! Might as well be prepared to make do without the right clothes," he quipped.

When John Abraham refused to work with Kangana Ranaut

2007-01-08T06:59:00.000-08:00

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.

No Smoking behind the camera!

2007-01-04T05:55:00.000-08:00

‘No Smoking’, the movie with an anti-smoking message, is reforming the smokers on the film’s sets also.

While a non-smoker like John Abraham has to smoke before the camera, it is quite the opposite for some regular smokers behind the camera on the sets of producer Kumar Mangat’s movie No Smoking .

Mangat has reportedly gotten strict with the film’s crew to keep them from smoking on the sets because the whole purpose of the film is to give an anti-smoking message. The producer has begun fining anyone who is caught smoking on the sets. And the fine is also hefty : Rs 500.

This strict code does not spare even the movie’s director Anurag Kashyap who is a regular smoker. Whenever Anurag is caught smoking a cigarette he has to shell out Rs. 500.

Moreover, lest anyone smoke on the sly, Mangat has reportedly hired a cameraman to photograph those who try to smoke stealthily.

Actor Ranvir Shorey , too, has been fined by the producer.

And if any unitmember refuses to pay the fine, Kumar tells him the amount will be deducted from their remuneration.

The producer is said to have raised more than one lakh rupees from the fines so far.

John, who gets to smoke a lot in the movie, has not been fined even once because he does not smoke in real life.

The film tells the story of a chain smoker who joins a rehabilitation centre after his marriage comes to the point of falling apart because of his compulsive habit. The movie has Ayesha Takia pairing with John.

Why Hrithik wants to gift John a thesaurus?

2007-01-03T22:14:00.000-08:00

We think you’re Bollywood’s Man of the Moment…
It’s been a great year not just for me personally but also for our industry. All in all, there have been lots of happy endings. I’m just a

small part of this great victory of the entire industry.

But your films, Krrish and Dhoom 2, have spread maximum smiles among distributors?
It’s always the film that works. Sure, actors are the last link with the audience and they ultimately translate the director’s vision but

they can’t do anything alone. That said, I’m happy that my distributors are happy.

How do you look back at 2006?
I don’t look back because the only purpose it serves is that it inflates the ego. I always believe that I did almost enough for my films

but from the feedback, it seems that I did more than enough.

Are you your biggest critic?
Unfortunately, yes. I’m still looking for the negatives to come from the outside source that I can depend on. That will be so

convenient. I get more intrigued by the people who have found fault in my work. I keep them close to me.

Koi…Mil Gaya, Lakshya, Krrish, Dhoom 2 and now Jodha Akbar, all of them are about larger-than-life super guys; don’t you

want to play a common man now?
I’ve always been a dreamer. I feel that if something in your mind is possible to do, then that dream is not big enough. I’m intrigued

to know what my true potential is. The only way I can find that out is by pushing myself. Cinema should make you feel like a child.

I have this urge to break out and give something not seen before to my audience... stuff like time travel, futuristic fare and invisible

man.

What was more challenging, Krrish or Dhoom 2?
Definitely Krrish. And that’s because of the risk in the concept. Before we began Krrish, whenever we would tell anyone that the

film is about a superhero who wears a mask and a cape, people used to laugh.

What does success mean to you?
It means to be in complete control of your senses and to live without fear of being what you are, no matter what it is. It means

being evolved enough to work the hardest I can, purely for the love of it.

How do you explain the furore created by the kiss in Dhoom 2?
Did you like the kiss?

Yes, I think you were good but that doesn’t answer my question?
If you enjoyed it then I rest my case. Perfect.

What about the obscenity case filed by a Bihar lawyer against you and Aishwarya Rai?
Even talking about that lawyer would be giving him undue importance but I guess I have to say this once and for all. The man does

not even represent five or six people, it’s just his way of getting the TV crews in his office.

Are you the most expensive star after your Rs 35-crore three-film deal with Adlabs?
Remuneration is relative to the worth you pay for. And if you are offered a price without demanding it, things are quite obvious,

aren’t they?

John Abraham says you’re the most gorgeous man. Comment.
I guess I’d say thank you and gift him a thesaurus as a birthday gift.

Hrithik Roshan in 2007?
Well, he’s on to another big challenge in with Jodha Akbar. We are also working on Krrish 3 and should start shooting by the end of

next year.

How are you enjoying the role of dad to Hrehaan?
Oh, my best role ever. We call him Ray in the house. That’s become his nickname.

John Abraham has no rivalry with Salman Khan

2006-12-05T05:03:00.000-08:00

The dashing John Abraham isn't bothered by stories about his rivalry with Salman Khan , who stars along with him in the forthcoming film Babul .

There have been news reports about Salman making snide remarks about John and a squabble during the making of the film.

“All I can do is brush it off with a smile. I really don't have time for all this,” John was quoted as saying in a newspaper Tuesday.

“As far as I'm concerned, I'm very comfortable with everyone around me,” John added.

There were no comments from Salman.

‘Babul’ is the story of the quest of a man ( Amitabh Bachchan ) trying to get his daughter-in-law ( Rani Mukherjee ) re-married after his son’s death.

Hema Malini plays Bachchan’s wife in the film while Salman plays their son.

John plays Rani’s friend in the film who also loves her but whose love is silent and he expresses all his pent up emotions through his songs.

Apart from ‘Babul’ John also stars in Kabul Express , in which he plays a television journalist covering the war against the Taliban in Afghanistan.

Both films will hit theaters later this month.

Is John Abraham becoming a narcissist?

2006-11-27T20:38:00.000-08:00

The idea of putting ones own images on a New Year calendar does sound narcissistic. But John Abraham insists otherwise.

The actor is all set to publish a calendar full of his images for the upcoming year. The calendar will exclusively have John’s poster-size images clicked by Subi Samuel. John insists that the project is not a vanity trip but a humble exercise in public relations.

According to the actor, the calendar is his own style of self-projection.

Sadly for John’s fans, the calendars will not be up for sale. He will gift them to some selected people, friends and family, on New Year.

Meanwhile, John is waitfor his two big banner releases Babul and Kabul Express next month.

He plays a silent lover in ‘Babul’. And he will be seen as a bold television journalist covering the war against the Taliban in Afghanistan in ‘Kabul Express’.

Ayesha Takia pairs with John Abraham

2006-10-30T09:33:00.000-08:00

This comely belle is sure making rapid strides in the film industry.

After winning hearts with her terrific performance in Nagesh Kukunoor’s Dor , Ayesha Takia has now signed another important project with lots of prospect for showing her histrionics.

She has been paired with John Abraham in Anurag Kashyap’s film No Smoking . Kashyap had previously approached Bipasha Basu for the role but she had turned it down due to unspecified reasons.

Kashyap says he had also narrated the script to Ayesha some time back. Moreover, the film’s producers, Vishal Bhardwaj and Kumar Mangat, approved of Ayesha.

Ayesha is presently shooting for a movie in Cape Town. But she has reportedly given her nod to the project. She will play a double role in the movie.

‘No Smoking’ has John playing a chain smoker who joins a rehab to quit the habit. How his life changes after that is what the movie is about.

The film’s shooting has already begun.

John Abraham’s heroine still not finalized

2006-10-23T11:22:00.000-07:00

Even though the shooting of Anurag Kashyap’s thriller No Smoking has begun, John Abraham’s heroine in the film is yet to be finalized.

The movie has John Abraham playing a compulsive smoker. Because of his irrepressible desire to smoke, his marriage also comes to the verge of falling apart. The movie aims to give an anti-smoking message in an entertaining way.

Several actresses have been under consideration for the role of female lead in the film. But none has been signed as yet.

The movie’s director, Anurag Kashyap , is said to have been very impressed by Bipasha Basu ’s look in Dhoom 2 . He calls her the “ultimate Indian male fantasy.” There is a possibility that he might suggest her name to the movie’s producers Kumar Mangat and Vishal Bhardwaj.

Meanwhile, the producers have denied that John will give a nude scene in the film. The said scene will show John’s character at the age of 11 and therefore it will be shot on a child artiste.

Sources say ‘No Smoking’ is based on a very unique concept.

John Abraham to do a nude scene for No Smoking

2006-10-21T01:28:00.000-07:00

Anurag Kashyap may have had a rough career as a filmmaker with two of his films Paanch and Black Friday stuck in the middle of controversies and not been released till date. But the man has now decided to strike back with his next film titled No Smoking starring John Abraham. The film is story about a chain smoker who wants to quit smoking and therefore joins a rehab. John plays this character of a chain smoker whose marriage comes in trouble because of his smoking addiction. Currently, there is also a buzz that John will be doing a nude scene in the film but Kashyap says that he hasn’t decided how that scene will be shot.

The film is being produced by Kumar Mangat who also produced Omkara. Vishal Bhardwaj will be doing the music of the film and the lyrics will be written by Gulzar. Besides John, the film also stars Ranvir Shorey and Joy Fernandes.

John Abraham`s private moments being watched

2006-10-17T14:25:00.001-07:00

Sometimes fans go to great extent to get a personal lowdown of their favourite star.

We have heard of star-struck fans stalking celebrities in Hollywood and even bugging their house in some instances. Now, the trend seems to have made its way to India too.

Recently, a fan has allegedly been sneaking into John Abraham ’s day-to-day life by stealthily peeping (probably by a telescope) into his new apartment in Sea Glimpse at Bandstand, Bandra.

Not only this, the fan even posted the details of his observations on John’s official website, sharing the information with other fans. The information revealed very minute details of John’s life: at what time he woke up, what he had for breakfast and who came to meet him at his apartment.

After these postings continued for three days, the designer of John’s website swung into action and blocked the fan’s ID.

John says he finds it amusing that people would want to know what he does in his house.

He is reportedly planning to grow big plants around the windows so that peeping Toms cannot peek inside.

Nikhil Advani's next?

2006-10-17T14:25:00.000-07:00

Film industry and gossip/rumors go hand in hand. In fact, it’s become a habit to hear at least one startling news in the course of the day and later, when you do a bit of cross-checking, you learn that it was a false siren. This time, Nikhil Advani is the topic of discussion!

Reportedly, Nikhil is planning a four-hero project next, once SALAAM-E-ISHQ releases, for which he’s keen to cast Big B, Hrithik Roshan, Akshaye Khanna and John Abraham in principal roles. A news-report even suggests that Nikhil has already paid a handsome signing amount to John.

“Rubbish,” Nikhil laughs aloud, “Where do these rumors originate from? I don’t know what I plan to make next, so how could I be signing the stars for it? I wrapped the shooting of SALAAM-E-ISHQ on Sunday [15th October] and the next three months would be devoted to the post-production work. Where’s the time to think of a new film?”

But there can’t be smoke without fire. The director of KAL HO NAA HO must’ve planned something. “Oh yes, I’ve planned to take a year off once SALAAM-E-ISHQ releases in January 2007. I have decided I won’t work for a year. I owe it to myself and my wife. SALAAM-E-ISHQ has exhausted me completely and I need to recharge my batteries,” he smiles.

All eyes are on SALAAM-E-ISHQ for sure. In fact, it’s amongst the three big films that are slated for release in January 2007. Initially slated for a 26th January release, Nikhil has decided to prepone the release by one day, which means SALAAM-E-ISHQ will hit the marquee on Thursday, 25th January.

While the first teaser of SALAAM-E-ISHQ will be unveiled with JAAN-E-MANN, the promotion of the film will gather momentum from 7th November onwards.

Aishwarya & John have the quality

2006-10-16T12:31:00.000-07:00

They've never been paired before. "But if you close your eyes you can see how good John Abraham and Aishwarya Rai look together," says producer Gaurang Doshi who's all set to bring together the golden couple in his new magical mystical romantic musical Happy Birthday.

To be directed by Sriram Raghavan who earlier did Ram Gopal Varma's Saif-Urmila starrer Ek Hasina Thi, Happy Birthday starts shooting in January.

Says Gaurang, "We had signed John about a year back. But we we needed a strong charismatic and popular leading lady. Because Happy Birthday isn't about just the male protagonist. When Ash said yes, everything fell into place. She has never been seen with John before. They look like Adonis and Venus together."

John is on the look-out for new leading ladies to be paired opposite. In Water he's paired with Lisa Ray, in Baabul with Rani Mukherjee and in Salaam-e-Ishq with Vidya Balan for the first time.

Says Gaurang, "The catch-line for Happy Birthday will be, 'Those Who Don't Believe In Magic Will Never Find It.' We needed a magical pair. John and Ash have the quality."

Adds John Abraham, "I think Aishwarya and I will make a good team. It's a great script. Sriram is a super-director, and we're excited."

The music score is being done by Vishal-Shekhar.

Here’s a casting coup!

John Abraham and Aishwarya Rai have been teamed for the first time in Gaurang Doshi’s HAPPY BIRTHDAY, to be directed by Sriram Raghavan. Gaurang has a penchant for multi-starrers [AANKHEN and DEEWAAR] and HAPPY BIRTHDAY will have its share of stars too. While Gaurang and Sriram are in the process of finalizing one more leading lady, Paresh Rawal has been roped in for a pivotal role in the film.

There’s a big surprise too, but Gaurang wants it to be just that -- a surprise -- when people watch the film. Okay, let’s give you a clue: The icon will enact one of the key roles in the enterprise.

What’s HAPPY BIRTHDAY all about? “All I can reveal right now is its tagline -- ‘Those who don’t believe in magic, will never find it’,” he smiles. So it’s all about magic? “Not at all! It’s a new genre, completely commercial, a complete dhamaal,” he isn’t in the mood to divulge more.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY begins shooting early next year and the makers are hopeful of releasing it in August 2007. Vishal-Shekhar are scoring its music.

John-Vidya affair? All smoke, no fire!

Recently, the chemistry between actors John Abraham and Vidya Balan became the grist for rumour mills.

Let’s admit it. If two co-stars have some steamy scenes in a film, the gossipmongers have a knack to link them up. It has happened with Akshay Kumar and Priyanka Chopra , Emraan Hashmi and Celina Jaitley and many more stars. John and Vidya happen to be the latest target.

The two are playing lovers in Nikhil Advani’s movie Salaam-e-Ishq . While filming for the movie, John and Vidya shared very good chemistry, which is evident in the promotional stills of the scenes showing them together. Some rumours even said that while shooting for a scene in which John and Vidya hide themselves under a dupatta, the two stayed under the dupatta for good many seconds even after the director had called ‘cut’.

While such canards have only fuelled the rumours further, Vidya has expressed her displeasure at such gossip-talk. John, on the other hand, has made public appearances with his longtime girlfriend Bipasha Basu to drive home the point that he is still with Bips.

Vidya says she just wants to focus on her work as she has some big movies coming up.

Vidya is presently a part of three big movies : Mani Ratnam’s Guru , Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s Eklavya and Nikhil Advani’s ‘Salaam-e-Ishq’.

John prepares for musician's role

2006-10-06T08:41:00.000-07:00

In case you're wondering why Bollywood's current heartthrob John Abraham has been so low-profile lately, the fact is he has been learning the guitar for his role in Imtiaz Ali's film "Rock Star".

So, when you see him take to the stage as a long-haired rock musician you know John won't be faking it.

"Yes I'm going to get those strings right. No point in strumming senselessly. Nowadays the audience has got very wise. They can tell when an actor is faking it. In fact, I learnt to play the flute for my role in 'Water'," John told IANS.

"At this rate I could become a one-man band. But I didn't have to learn to play ride the bike for 'Dhoom'. Seriously, role ke bahaane it's good fun to expand your horizons. I don't want to be an actor just to look good and wear trendy clothes on screen. I want to go deeper into my characters. It's great fun to prepare for a role."

Deepa Mehta, who directed John in "Water" which is Canada's official entry for Oscars, said he gave his best to her film.

"John shocked me with his preparedness. Whether it was getting into a dhoti or playing the flute or getting the body language of his character right, John put his soul into 'Water'. We've become really close friends. I'm looking forward to working with him again in 'Exclusion'."

John smiled at Mehta's compliments and said: "By the grace of god, I've plenty of prolific work on my plate. I love the family of directors I'm working with - Deepa, Sriram Raghavan ('Happy Birthday'), Nagesh Kukunoor ('Ashayen'), Imtiaz Ali ('Rock Star'), Anurag Kashyap ('No Smoking').

"If you listen to the scripts you would wonder why I'm doing such unusual films when I could be doing hardcore commercial cinema. It's because I want to grow as an actor."

Incidentally, Saif Ali Khan is the other actor in Bollywood who plays the guitar. Maybe the two actors can jam together?

"Why not?" laughed John!

See how John beat Salman!

2006-10-05T10:29:00.000-07:00

In case you're wondering why John has been so low-profile lately, it's only work.

Salman, go eat your heart out. While the senior actor has been dying to 'be' a rock star on screen, it's John who has beaten him to it.

John is going to play a musician in Imtiaz Ali's Rock Star. And when we see him take to the stage as a long-haired rock musician John won't be faking it.

He's actually learning to play the guitar for the role.

Says John, "Yes I'm going to get those strings right. No point in strumming senselessly. Nowadays the audience has got very wise. They can tell when an actor is faking it. In fact I learnt to play the flute for my role in Water.

At this rate I could become a one-man band. But I didn't have to learn to play ride the bike for Dhoom. Seriously, role ke bahaane it's good fun to expand your horizons. I don't want to be an actor just to look good and wear trendy clothes on screen. I want to go deeper into my characters. It's great fun to prepare for a role."

Adds Deepa Mehta, "John shocked me with his preparedness. Whether it was getting into a dhoti or playing the flute or getting the body language of his character right John put his soul into Water. We've become really close friends. I'm looking forward to working with him again in Exclusion."

John smiles at Deepa's compliments. "By the grace of God, I've plenty of prolific work on my plate. I love the family of directors I'm working with: Deepa, Sriram Raghavan (Happy Birthday), Nagesh Kukunoor (Ashayen), Imtiaz Ali (Rock Star), Anurag Kashyap (No Smoking). …

If you listen to the scripts you would wonder why I'm doing such unusual films when I could be doing hardcore commercial cinema. It's because I want to grow as an actor."

Incidentally Saif is the other actor in Bollywood who plays the guitar. Maybe the two actors can jam together?

Now, get ready for John Abraham fashion clothes

2006-10-05T10:28:00.000-07:00

John Abraham indeed has an impeccable taste in fashion. And this taste will be reflected in the John Abraham Collection, to be launched in November this year.

No, John is not turning into a fashion designer. But he has struck a deal with Wrangler US for a clothes collection that will be titled after his name. More than just the name, the fashion line will use John’s fashion sensibilities for designing the ready-to-wear clothes for both men and women.

The designers of the collection will be from Milan (Italy) and London (UK). They are the same people who design for the Diesel brand.

John says once the fashion line is launched, he would wear only John Abraham Collection clothes. And he urges his male and female fans to do the same.

John has been an ambassador for Wrangler for quite some time now. The brand’s association with the dashing Bollywood star has increased its sales. Therefore, the idea to launch a clothes line exclusively in the name of John Abraham came about.

The actor says the collection would have everything that he sartorially aspires to wear.

John was named the Asia’s sexiest man last year by a UK-based Bollywood magazine. This year, he has been named the second best after Abhishek Bachchan . However, John’s popularity with today’s youths, girls particularly, has not waned a bit.

Considering this, the John Abraham Collection ought to be a hit among youngsters.

John takes up cudgels on behalf of girl child

2006-10-04T10:40:00.000-07:00

First Deepa Mehta's Water, now Ravi Chopra's Babul…. In both John Abraham plays a progressive man who wants to marry a widow. And there’s another film on widow rehabilitation Dor which people are talking about.

"Deepa's Water is going to be distributed by Ravi Chopra who's directing me in Baabul .And I'm going to be working with the Dor director Nagesh Kukunoor. Look at the thread of continuity… Isn't that something?" says John surfacing after a while to express his immense delight at Water being nominated as Canada's official entry to the Oscars.

"When I was in Toronto to promote Kabul Express I spent a lot of time with Deepa Mehta . We really hit it off. I guess the rules for Indian cinema abroad have changed. Today it's really cool to be Indian…And then you come back and see the potholes on the road from the highway…. I can criticize my own country. But I won't allow anyone outside my country to do so. Thanks to films like Water, it's really cool to be an Indian abroad."

John is delighted by how far Water has gone. "I remember at the Toronto film festival last year there was Steven Sodenberg, Tim Burton, Steven Spielberg and Sir Anthony Hopkins at the Festival. That's when I realized Water is special. I've no clue which way the film will go in India. But we can always hope for the best. Water deals with a sensitive issue of widow re-marriage."

He's surprised by the impact of Water worldwide. "Water is solely responsible for giving me an identity as an actor abroad. When I went back to the Toronto film festival this time, the North American press and movie-goers who waited outside the hotel knew me by name. They had my photograph to sign. And Water is solely responsible."

While last year John was in Toronto with Water this year he took Kabul Express. "Kabul Express didn't feature in the gala section. But it reinforced the fact that I was there two years in the running. It's considered prestigious to be at Toronto film festival twice in two years. Cameron Bailey who got Kabul Express there said onstage, "I promise you a John Abraham film every year.'

John is open to an international career. "But I haven't really said yes to anything. Right now I'd rather focus on my projects here. Yes, there's a probability that I could do an international project next year. But not right now."

John Abraham learns to play guitar!

2006-09-28T09:36:00.000-07:00

Bollywood’s dashing star John Abraham is busy learning the six-string for a movie role.

John is playing a musician in Imtiaz Ali's Rock Star , where his fans will see him as a long-haired rocker playing guitar. According to John, people are very wise today and they can judge whether the actor is actually performing or faking and he doesn’t want to leave any loophole in his performance.

“I don't want to be an actor just to look good and wear trendy clothes on screen. I want to go deeper into my character. It's great fun to prepare for a role. I'm soon going to get those chords right,” John is quoted as saying.

Incidentally, John previously learnt to play flute for Deepa Mehta’s Water which is the Canadian entry for the Oscars.

John is currently working in Sriram Raghavan’s Happy Birthday , Nagesh Kukunoor’s Aashayein and Anurag Kashyap’s No Smoking . He has also clinched a plum role in Deepa Mehta’s next film titled ‘The Exclusion’.

'Don' team pairs up with John, Indian cricket team

2006-09-24T01:04:00.000-07:00

'Don' trio of Shahrukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra and Kareena Kapoor have joined hands with John Abraham and the Indian cricket team. Sounds like an odd combination, isn't it? Is it for a film? No, in fact this group of individuals has come together to promote the ICC Championship trophy by means of a music video that also celebrates the greatness of India.

Titled 'Aaya India', the music video features SRK leading the bunch with the famous FEVICOL man making an appearance too. A rhythmic number with the sound of 'Hoo Haa...India, Aaya India' catching up instantly, it is composed by Vishal Shekhar with Sukhwinder Singh in tremendous form yet again.

John Abraham`s romance with Toronto

2006-09-16T17:51:00.000-07:00

Dashing John Abraham , accompanied by Bipasha Basu , has been in Toronto right from day one of the ongoing international film festival.

John may not have had Indian fans swarming all around him like Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan did earlier on in the event, but the media attention he has attracted has been no less.

In Toronto for the special presentation of Kabir Khan 's thriller Kabul Express , John addressed a press conference at the downtown Sutton Place Hotel Thursday in the company of the film's Kabir and co-star Arshad Warsi .

‘Kabul Express’ hasn't exactly floored local critics – one of them described the film as "the most sublimely terrible movie in this year's festival" – but that hasn't exactly affected John's considerable fan following in Toronto.

The reason is pretty obvious: his fame here rests solely on his widely lauded performance as a Gandhian idealist in Deepa Mehta 's Water , which was the opening night film of the 2005 edition of the festival.

John is now due to play a role in Mehta's next film - the $15 million ‘Exclusion’, based on the ill-fated 1914 Komagata Maru voyage that ended well short of Vancouver in the face of the racial laws that prevailed in Canada back then.

So there is reason to believe that John's romance with Toronto is far from over.

Nagesh Kukunoor signs John Abraham

2006-09-13T09:06:00.000-07:00

Nagesh Kukunoor is known for hard-hitting small budget films. The director of films like HYDERABAD BLUES and IQBAL is finally treading the conventional Bollywood path. After Ayesha Takia in DOR, it's John Abraham in his next film- AASHAYEIN. Percept Picture Company (PPC) will produce the film and as the title suggests, it's about hope. Nagesh informed a tabloid that John plays an idle guy in the film who waits for luck to change things for him. One day he wins a huge sum of money and on the same day he discovers that he has cancer. So the story basically revolves around how he deals with the situation.

Nagesh's next film is titled BEMISAL and apparently he wants Abhishek Bachchan and Rani Mukherjee for this film. It is inspired by a true story and is still in the scripting stage.

Is John turning producer?

2006-08-30T08:26:00.000-07:00

Has the production bug stung John Abraham? Is the talented actor following the footsteps of his colleagues and producing films? That’s the speculation in the industry. According to untrustworthy sources, John has not only floated his film production company, he has also decided to produce two films in the first round.

John, who is traveling from Manchester to Glasgow [for the Rockstars concert], called to deny the news. “It’s rubbish. I am in no mood to turn producer. Not at this moment. In fact, Bhaskar [John’s business manager] also read out the news to me. The thought of starting my own film hasn’t even crossed my mind,” John tells me.

The actor continues without a break. “I am enjoying the phase right now. I am working with film-makers who are nurturing me as an actor. I am at a stage where film production doesn’t feature on my plan of things. My core competency lies in acting and that’s what I am concentrating on,” he states.

John is living out of a suitcase presently. He flies to Toronto soon after the concert, since KABUL EXPRESS will be showcased at the prestigious Toronto Film Festival. “The organizers of the Festival loved the film. Also, KABUL EXPRESS is the only film filmed in Afghanistan after the Taliban regime. The international community is gung-ho for this reason,” he reveals.

Meanwhile, Yash Raj is yet to decide on the release date for KABUL EXPRESS. “Adi [Aditya Chopra] might take a decision after its screening at the Toronto Film Festival,” John adds.

Bend it like John Abraham!

Actors replacing each other has become a routine in Bollywood. Till lately it was actor Saif Ali Khan who was doing Vivek Agnihotri's forthcoming film GOAL and now it's John. The film has football as its premise and is a mega venture with a large international crew.

"John is a champion football player and is extremely passionate about the sport. He has a fantastic understanding of the game. Infact he went to Germany just for a day to watch the World Cup match so that we could recreate that magic in our film." Vivek is quoted in a media report.

He added that the film bears no resemblance with the Hollywood flick GOAL. The film will be produced by UTV and has hired the services of the world famous Andy Ansah, who has worked with the best football players like Pele, Ronaldinho, David Beckham, etc.

The film is expected to release sometime around Diwali next year.

Happy in Bollywood, John Abraham wants it to go global

The Hindu

New Delhi, July 20 (PTI): Even as Indian cinema and actors are making a dent abroad, actor John Abraham would rather stay put in Bollywood and have Indian cinema go global in terms of production value and craft.

"I don't want to sound like a marketing agent for 'Rang De Basanti' but I think it's the finest example of global piece of Indian cinema," says the star of films like 'Jism', 'Garam Masala', 'Taxi 9211' and 'Zinda'.

Meanwhile, Abraham is soaking up the rave reviews for 'Water' which has been received well in Canada, US, Australia and even in neighbouring Sri Lanka, where it is running to packed houses. "It's an Indian subject and it's a pity that the release of the film has been delayed in India. But it will be released here shortly." he says.

Another film that's expected to hit the theatres at the end of September or beginning of October is 'Kabul Express.' As a part of his homework , Abraham read Khalid Hosseni's 'Kite Runner' and saw 'Osama ' directed by Siddiq Barmak .

A comedy, where he plays a scribe on an assignment to Afghanistan after the fall of the Taliban regime, Abraham says that the film was an eye-opener in ways more than one.

This was the period when Karzai had just come to power. The Talibans were kept locked in Afghani backyards and foreign correspondents would pay up 200 dollars a piece to interview them, he says.

"America has lot of press and PR but' it's India that's doing a whole lot of development work," states the 34-year-old talking about the warmth exuded by Afghanis during the shoot.

On the remake mania gripping the film industry, he says "I think it's a great trend. It's raking in the moolah for the industry."

So does he regret not being a part of Dhoom II? "I can either be grateful that the prequel was offered to me or crib about the latter. I choose to be thankful."

Since Abraham has done action , comedy and a romantic lead , which one is he the most comfortable with ? "I think action requires the least bit of acting because that's really being yourself on screen. Comedy is a bit of work and I admit I made mistakes in 'Garam Masala'." he says modestly.

On his favourite director, Abraham says that he'd "give his right arm for Mahesh Bhatt. He is a legend."

His good looks make him a favourite of the fairer sex but what explains his popularity with kids? (He is the brand ambassador for a kid's channel because he was at the top spot on the poll conducted by them) "I think it's the streak of rebellion that they like in me. I think it's the biggest compliment to be loved by kids as they are honest about their feelings and are your loyal audience."

His chiselled body, the envy of many he reveals is a result of "good food, adequate sleep and workout."
