John Abraham known as the icon of teenagers for his physique and macho looks. He is not just known for his exceptional roles in Bollywood films, he is also popular as one of the hottest young actor.
John Abraham says that he wants to change the perception of the audience in India as they believe that action heroes are only about six-packs abs and stunts. In an interview, the actor said, ”I want to change the way action heroes are seen in this country because I believe action heroes are not about six-pack abs, bulging biceps and stunts. They should have vulnerability and that’s what I think we miss to a large extent here (in India). That’s what I intend to change here in this country, and I will do it in my own way.”
In an interview with the IANS he said, “Since the day I became a producer, my performance as an actor has seen a huge quantum leap and that’s simply because as an actor I wasn’t getting to do the films I really wanted to do or wanted the audience to see. So when I became a producer, not only did I start producing films like I did, but I also brought in something like ‘RAW‘, for example, to act in,”
He further added, “My best is yet to come. His next five years are very defining for him because he knows what he have been researching on, he know what he on hand and where he is going to take his production house JA Entertainment, He as an actor and other actors who have introduced in the industry like Ayushmann Khurrana in ‘Vicky Donor‘.
He stated that, “I know we are going to get other actors in the industry and I know we are going to change the trajectory of the way people look at actors, scripts and films. That’s very important.”
“I think it’s a great time for me. It’s a purple patch for me. I say this not because of anything… I could have said this 15 years ago, but it never was. Today it is (a good time) because the audience preferences have finally come to the forefront. Filmmakers are succumbing to what the audience wants rather than throwing crap at the audiences and the audiences have become brave enough to through crap out of the window.
His next project include action thriller Batla House, around the 2008 Batla House encounter case. John is set to work in a film that revolves around motorcycles, apart from planning an action franchise, well as a football-oriented film 1911.
