In the last 3 years, he has proved his mettle in films like No Smoking (surreal), Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal (sports), Water (period), Salaam-e-Ishq (emotional), Kabul Express (action drama), Taxi No. 9211 (comic drama), Zinda (intense) and Garam Masala (comedy). Still, John Abraham is being tagged as a non-actor by quite a few of his detractors. Does he ever wonder why?
"Well, you have rightly put them as detractors. Quite a lot of them actually are of such breed though there are some well wishers who are genuine in their feedback and point out things which are meant to be improved. I truly appreciate such criticism and accept their feedback graciously. As for the rest they can forever continue to speak the way they do. I can't do things just in order to please them", says John in an earnest tone even as he gets ready to battle the critics once again with Dostana.
"Sach bolun toh not at all", says John without blinking an eyelid, "Listening to them is like listening to a broken record. It goes on and on without any rhyme or reason and I don't have time or energy to correct it. What matters to me is whether my audiences, producers and directors want me on screen or not."
Mentioning about his endeavor to be a part of commercial cinema, John says, "I have to give quality films to my audience. I want to see them laugh and make them happy. My kind of cinema has to be very good and commercial. And I can proudly and confidently say that Dostana is a piece of such cinema."
