John Abraham is the chosen one by Sanjay Gupta for his comeback film. The actor has been signed up for an action thriller which would be going on floors soon. This would also serve as a reunion for Sanjay Gupta and John Abraham who had last worked together in Zinda (2006).
"For quite some time, Sanjay has been deciding on the starcast for his next multi-starrer. In fact this new action thriller that he would be directing is being pitched as the 'baap of all action entertainers' that have ever come out of Bollywood. It's a multi starrer and while there are number of other actors who are in the film, John is a prominent name to be on board", says a source closely attached to the film.
After Zinda, Sanjay Gupta went on a sabbatical for five years and only shot for one of the short stories in Dus Kahaniyaan. As a producer he did release films like Woodstock Villa, Acid Factory, The Great Indian Butterfly and Pankh but as a director he lied low for a long duration. No wonder, when he decided to call the shots again, John was one of the first actors that he approached.
"Zinda was a milestone for John because in the film he was an unpretentious antagonist. Pitched against Sanjay Dutt in the film, he gave a very good account of himself and as an actor; he was taken far more seriously post Zinda. John too understands this. This is the reason why he too didn't think twice about doing Sanjay's comeback film", adds the source.
Moreover, John is said to have been bowled over by the script that Sanjay narrated to him. As a result, he instantly agreed to the film. Sanjay too has promised John that he would be presented quite stylishly, something that would be quite crowd pleasing.
On contacted, Sanjay wasn't willing to share complete details around the film. However he did agree that John was already signed for his comeback affair. "John and I had a great time making Zinda. We were constantly in touch and I always had him in mind even when writing of my new film was in progress. I guess it would be too early to talk about his role or the film in totality. Let the right time come. However, John is already on the film which by the way is a multi starrer. I am sure John's presence will add definite weight to the film."
Now we look forward to you revealing the rest of the star cast as well Sanjay!
