John gets steamy

Actor shoots a make-out scene with Sonal Sehgal

John Abraham has performed an intimate love-making scene with Sonal Sehgal in Nagesh Kukunoor's Aashayein.

The scene is an important part of the film and gives John's character a new twist. Even though it's graphic in nature, the director has made sure he's shot it aesthetically.

A source says, "John and Sonal's love-making scenes come at a crucial point in the film and take the story in a new direction. Before shooting it, Nagesh explained the motive behind the passionate scene to both the actors."

Aashayein is about Rahul Singh (John), a compulsive gambler in love with Nafisa (Sonal).

Suddenly one day, he learns that he is suffering from a disorder that gives him only 90 days to live. The prognosis changes the way he views life.

John to appeal against jail term

John Abraham, who has been sentenced to 15 days in jail in a rash and negligent driving case registered in 2006, Friday said he would appeal against the verdict.

"To begin with, I'm a law abiding citizen and I will be appealing this verdict and will go to every length to have this verdict appealed. I'm advised that I have a good chance of succeeding this appeal," John, who is currently out on bail, said.

"I am also clarifying with this statement only because I am a public figure and in all modesty I do have a large youth interaction, who look to me for guidance and leadership and inspiration and I don't want them to feel or take away that when wronged, we do not fight for what is right," John said, reading from his statement.

"I also want to categorically state that I have the highest regard for the judicial system of our great country and this is more of a personal clarification I felt compelled to make due to the public life that I also lead than commenting in any way to the judicial view," he added.

John was sentenced to 15 days jail by a city court on October 14. He was charged under sections 279 (rash driving or riding on a public way) and 337 (causing hurt by act endangering life or personal safety of others) of the Indian Penal Code. He immediately applied for bail and deposited a fine of Rs.1,500.

The accident took place April 8, 2006 when the actor banged his 1100 CC Yamaha Hayabusa motorbike into a cycle, injuring two people.

John Abraham's a liar!

We're not saying that. Machines being used to promote his upcoming film Jhootha Hi Sahi have arrived at that conclusion

Around a hundred lie detectors have certified John Abraham as a liar!

The marketing team of Abbas Tyrewala's Jhootha Hi Sahi has come up with a promotional activity that involves a lie detection machine. A person has to put his finger on the machine and answer questions. The machine will indicate if the user is lying or telling the truth.

Says a source from the team, "These brand-new lie detectors will be attached to the film's standees in cinema halls. Anyone can get a lie detection test done. To show how the machines work, we asked John to get used to it, since he would be encouraging others to use it."

Says producer Madhu Manthena, "John kept trying out the lie detector and it kept branding him a liar. He tried another, thinking something was wrong with the machine. But a few other folks tried them out and received an opposite result (that they were telling the 'truth').

Hundred-odd standees later, we've decided that he's a confirmed liar. He wanted us to change and tweak the standee but I don't think that's going to happen."

Our source adds, "John was quite irritated. He couldn't believe that every machine was producing the same result."

John Abraham climbs up hoarding
John Abraham is not only one of the hottest actors in Bollywood but according to a huge poster put up in Juhu he is also a liar. Well, before you get any ideas let us tell you that this poster has been put up by the makers of Jhootha Hi Sahi and is one of the biggest posters ever put up. In fact, it is a tall as a four story building.
The first look of Jhootha Hi Sahi was such that no one could recognize John. His look in the film is very different. So to show that it was really him in the picture and not another photoshopped miracle, John actually donned his look from the film. By wearing a shirt with glasses.

Says John Abraham, “The unveiling of the film was a thrilling experience, different from the usual unveilings I’ve done in the past.” Commenting on his look in the film, “My look in the film is very different and not something anyone has seen me in before. Jhootha Hi Sahi is an amazing film and I’m very excited about it. Abbas Tyrewala has done an awesome job.”

"I can beat John..."

Bipasha Basu is itching to do action roles. While her latest film 'Aakrosh' is about honour killings where she plays her most fragile character yet, the actress says in real life she is fit enough to beat her boyfriend John Abraham's energy levels.

"I want to do action. I think I am too fit at this point in time and that is a zone that I have not tapped fully and in India we don't have too many films where the woman gets to do action. Hopefully, somewhere I see that I will be able to realise something that I want very soon. So I'm just crossing my fingers," Bipasha said.

The 31-year-old has one of the most well-toned bodies among Bollywood actresses.

"I feel girls should be (physically) strong, it's very important. I have a boyfriend who is very strong; so I should match at least 30 percent of his strength.

"Now my energy level is much more than him, I can beat his energy levels in 20 minutes," revealed Bipasha, who also released a fitness DVD 'Bipasha Basu: Love Yourself' earlier this year.

Tagged as a sexy glamour girl, Bipasha surprised everyone when she decided to do the issue-based film 'Lamhaa' and flaunt a no make-up look. She is repeating the same in her new release 'Aakrosh'. Directed by Priyadarshan, it is about honour killings and also stars Ajay Devgn and Akshaye Khanna.

"In the film, I play Geeta who loves Ajay Devgn but is not allowed to marry him because he is from a lower caste. She is married off to Paresh Rawal. In the film, I lead a very sad life. This is by far the saddest role that I've ever done. I actually pity the life of women who go through this.

"My character in the film goes through marital abuse, she gets continuously beaten up and abused by her husband. She has no happiness left. She is not married to the man she loves. Basically she is more or less a dead person.

"That's why Geeta has no makeup, her saris are very normal. She doesn't even do her hair properly. She is by far the most vulnerable, weak, fragile role that I have ever played," she added.

Bipasha maintains she is not a method actor and leaves her character on the sets.

"I'm not a method actor, I don't even take it after the cut. I'm an instinctive actor because I learnt on the job. I never wanted to be an actor when I did my first film. so for me it is all instinctive.

"If you make me rehearse too much, I'll be like a robot, I'll be mechanical. So, I don't belong to the method school of acting and I don't understand it because to me it all sounds mad."

John Abraham is a liar!

John Abraham is one actor who definitely makes heads turn, courtesy his personality and style. He has been all over the place these days due to him signing a whopping Rs. 100 crore deal with Mates, the company that represents him. If that isn't enough, then, Johnny boy is apparently set to shake up the insurance business, by insuring his butt for a whopping Rs.100 crore!

Well, it seems that the John mania is here to stay and how! The latest to hit the town are the hoards of hoardings that scream 'John Abraham Is A Liar". Ever since then, we have been getting incessant calls and mails requesting us to 'investigate' into this matter. Bollywood Hungama wasted no time in doing so and solved the mystery. All of the hoardings are a part of the mega teaser campaign that promotes John's upcoming film Jhoota Hi Sahi, which is directed by Abbas Tyrewala. Readers may recollect that the film was earlier titled 1-800-Love. The film also stars Pankhi, Abbas' wife, who is all set to play John's onscreen love in this film.

Bipasha pleasantly surprised by John's nerdy look

Bipasha Basu says she is pleasantly surprised by her beau, actor John Abraham's unique and bespectacled look in Abbas Tyrewala's Jhootha Hi Sahi.

"People know him as a stud and in this film, he looks like an adorable simpleton! It's also so different from the real John who I know. Such is the magic of cinema," Bipasha posted on her Twitter page.

John plays Siddharth - a messy boy, who is a compulsive liar. He wears spectacles and sports a paunch - quite unlike the handsome and fit John.

"Acting is so amazing, you can play parts which are so different from the real you. The Jhootha Hi Sahi promo of John took me by surprise pleasantly," added Bipasha.

The film also features Tyrewala's wife Pakhi, who has even written the script. Jhootha Hi Sahi is set for an October release.
