"The Box Office Numbers Are Encouraging", Says John Abraham On "Batla House" Film Collection

The Bollywood’s one of the most passionate actor John Abraham is known for his super thrilling perfomances. John has combined his movies with emotions, good storyline and interesting characters.

Earlier John used to work on his romantic films but after a long decade, John started doing national film characters like a raw agent, army man or police characters.

In an interview, he said, “There is a physicality that I have that exists, there’s a certain way people perceive the way I look, that is going to stay. I am not shying away from that,” John told PTI.

“You use physicality in a subversive way. Batla House isn’t a physical film but my cop is throwing a guy in the cupboard. This cop has 8-pack abs but it isn’t jarring you. If you use your physicality smartly, it is good, not overtly. I am not here to use my physicality overtly,” he added.

John said if actors want to sustain in the film industry they should believe in their gut. “It is very important not to have that misstep. We cannot afford it. You can have the fastest 100 million views, the biggest opening but the biggest misstep is still the film not being appreciated because that many millions have seen a bad film. The right step is to follow your gut and be committed to the kind of content you want to create.”

The 46-year-old actor, whose latest release Batla House has opened to positive reviews, is overwhelmed with the response the Nikkhil Advani-directed movie has received.

“In my career, I’ve never seen such a large wave of appreciation from the audience and the critics unanimously for the film, my performance, Nikkhil’s direction. It has been overwhelming. Through this film, we are part of something really special which cannot be translated, it manifested by the numbers we are getting for it.”

“This is beyond that. We have made something archival enough to stay on for a long time. The numbers are very good and encouraging for us and I’m so thrilled and happy with the response,” John Abraham added.
