He is rumoured to have a soured relationship with co-star Arshad Warsi and split from long-time girlfriend Bipasha Basu, but John Abraham is unfazed by the grapevine buzz. The actor, busy shooting abroad and pursuing his international goals, says his inaccessibility to the media fans the rumours.
“I’m inaccessible to the media when I’m shooting abroad. So I’m sure the stories come from those who are accessible from abroad. You know what I mean? When I’m consumed by my work I don’t like to focus on other things,” John told IANS.
“It’s sad when incorrect things are written about me. I want people who read this interview to know I’m not a vindictive person. I have no clue who is spreading the rumours. I’ve been out of the country and pretty much disconnected with what’s being said and spread,” said John, who is proud to be part of Deepa Mehta’s international project “Luna”.
“Deepa has shown a lot of faith in me. Talks were on for ‘Luna’. Mine is a beautifully etched role. I play an activist. The heartening thing is my nationality isn’t even mentioned. And my character’s name isn’t Indian.”
Excerpts:

That was by choice. I would rather be seen than heard. I’ve always believed in working quietly and not making tall claims. I always said roles abroad would happen when they happen. At the end of the day Bollywood is my home. I’m damn lucky to be getting all these opportunities. The film industry has been very kind to me. I love the movies!
