Everyone knows him as a first-rate model, an evolving actor and a youth icon. But there is more to John Abraham, who turned 33 Monday.
He is deeply involved in social work and wants more youngsters to join his Habitat for Humanity brigade.
“I keep a break between my films and during those breaks I work for social causes I address. I love animals and I work for PETA. I have my own brigade called John’ brigade for Habitat For Humanity,” John said.
“This year, we have built 5,000 houses in impoverished villages all over India. Next year, we plan to build 8,000 houses. Habitat for Humanity is a Jimmy Carter foundation project.
“Do people know that, no! But now I have to talk about my work because I need the youth to join me. I need youngsters to come there and actually build the houses. I build houses for the people. I go up on the roof and put in screws. The youth connect with me. They feel that if John can do it, so can we. If John can build houses, we can build houses too,” he added.
