John Abraham believes action heroes are the biggest movie stars and the actor says Bollywood needs to come up with more such icons. The 45-year-old actor, who was last seen in action thriller \u201cParmanu: The Story of Pokhran\u201d, also praised Tiger Shroff for his dedication to the genre.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the biggest stars are action heroes. Look at Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dwayne Johnson. Action stars will always be evergreen. In our country, apart from me, there is Tiger Shroff who is doing great action. At the moment, two of us are doing action films. We both have different styles. There is a place for more action heroes but there are only two of us,\u201d John told PTI.<\/p>\n
The actor has action films such as Dhoom, Force and Dishoom to his credit. He is grateful to the audience for accepting him in this avatar. \u201cThe expectations excite me and I seek to do crazy action sequences. It is a positive responsibility on me. I wanted to be an action hero. There are some heroes who like dancing and I like fighting, lifting people and breaking bones. I enjoy it.\u201d<\/p>\n
John has a string of action films lined up for release, starting with Satyameva Jayate. The film is scheduled to release on August 15. Next up are Romeo Akbar Walter and Batla House. But the actor says doing films in the genre is not a \u201cconscious decision\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is just that all these films are coming at the same time. What I am missing right now in my life is doing a comedy and I love doing it. I am a big fan of Anees Bazmee, I like David Dhawan also\u2026 I loved working with Rohit Dhawan,\u201d he adds.<\/p>\n
Talking about his Independence Day release, John says it is great to reteam with his Shootout in Wadala co-star Manoj Bajpayee. \u201cIn Shootout at Wadala, our characters came from a criminal background. But in \u2018Satyameva Jayate\u2019, the film is about a cop and a killer\u2026 Whatever the audience has yearned for they will get to see it all now,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n
The actor says he recently started shooting for director Robbie Grewal\u2019s Romeo Akbar Walter and the filming is expected to be completed by August end. \u201cIt is one of the most intriguing subjects I have heard. It is the most challenging film I have done in the recent past,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
