John joins Danny

  • IndiaGlitz, [Friday,September 18 2009]

Headlines had it that Oscar winner filmmaker Danny Boyle is soon going to make a Mumbai-based movie, ‘Bombay Velvet’, with Aamir and Shah Rukh. Now the latest to join the bandwagon is John Abraham.

The air has also been cleared with the confirmation of Aamir Khan in the movie. Initially it was rumoured that John was replaced by Aamir. But the rumour has also been erased.

The movie is going to be directed by Anurag Kashyap, who had worked with John in ‘No Smoking’. So naturally, the director’s first preference went to rope in John for ‘Bombay Velvet’, who had shared good rapport with the actor before. It was Anurag’s a kind of gesture to repay John for acting in ‘No Smoking’. After 10 years of struggle in the film industry, John was the first hero who took Anurag seriously, sources said.

Now in ‘Bombay Velvet’ the first part will have Shah Rukh Khan, the second John Abraham and finally Aamir Khan to complete the third part. It is said that John will be donning the character of a real-life 1960’s hero of the masses.

Looks like we can look forward to something really big with this one!
