Looking more relaxed than heever has been in the past few months, John Abraham reflects the confidence andsecurity of someone who has the world at his feet. “Well, you can saythat. After all, soccer is an important part of my world and I’ve beenindulging in a lot of football kicking of late.So yes, I had the world at myfeet,” laughs the sexy hunk.
And as he flashes his dimpledsmile that instantly makes women go weak in their knees, you are bound to giveup looking for any shadows of pain that he might have endured when hisrelationship with longtime girlfriend Bipasha Basu was dragged through mediamuck. “We both knew the status of our relationship. It would be silly togo by what is being speculated about our lives,” he says.
But his going underground atthe time only complicated matters. “Well, I was busy shooting inPondicherry for Nagesh Kukkunoor’sAashayein.Besides, I don’t think we owe an explanation to anyone,” he adds.
So, there is no trouble inparadise? “Well, just like any relationship, we do have our lovers’tiffs for sure, but no trouble in paradise! It would need a really big andgenuine reason to drive us two apart.”
Talking about thesmokin’ and sizzling chemistry the two share even on screen, John prefersto give all credit to Bips. “She’s such a fantastic actor. Shebrings out the best in me.” And while John can’t stop praising thehot actor, he’s rather modest when it comes to talking about his sexappeal. “My God, don’t embarrass me,” he laughs and adds,“Well, it’s all thanks to my crazy genes.” Even asJohn’s on a high personally, professionally too he’s going greatguns.
Talking about theeclectic mix of films that his cine-bag boasts of, John says that he’s notaverse to taking risks and experimenting. “I am doing the kind of films Iwould love to be associated with even 30 years down the line. I am working withdirectors right from Anurag Kashyap to Vivek Agnihotri, from Karan Johar toSriram Raghavan. So far, so good.”
But along the way he seems tohave rubbed many people the wrong way. Salman Khan being one of them. Ask himabout it and he finally breaks his long-maintained dignified silence.“Well, if he doesn’t want to acknowledge me, that’s his call.Everyone is entitled to have their opinions. And besides I am not here to win MrCongeniality title. I do my work sincerely and honestly. And that’s allthat matters.”
