Whoever
said
that
models
cannot
act,
must
be
eating
his
own
words.
Because
John
Abraham
is
proof
of
the
fact
that,
they
can.
And
how!
There
is
certainly
more
to
him
than
his
good
looks.
He
will
soon
be
seen
in
Milan
Luthria's
Taxi
No.9211
along
with
Nana
Patekar
and
Sameera
Reddy.
Without
further
ado,
we
present
John
Abraham.
You
recently
spent
Valentine's
day
away
from
Bipasha.
Instead
you
spent
it
with
hordes
of
screaming
female
fans
in
London.
Good
or
bad?
Well
I
think
it's
good
and
bad!
It
was
good
because
I
met
a
lot
of
people
in
London.
And
of
course
it
was
bad
because
Bipasha
was
in
Bombay
and
I
was
in
London.
So
this
was
a
Valentine's
Day
I'm
spent
alone
in
the
city
of
London.
Did
you
enjoy
London?
Yes
very
much.
I
went
to
Bradford,
Birmingham
and
Southhall.
The
response
has
been
very
positive
and
encouraging
for
someone
like
me.
Taxi
9211...
Tell
us
about
the
movie
and
the
character
that
you
play.
It
is
a
new
age
humorous
film.
It
is
the
story
of
two
people.
One
is
Jai
Mittal,
played
by
me
and
the
other
is
Raghav
Shastri
played
by
Nana
Patekar.
My
character
is
a
rich
millionaire's
son
who
is
very
spoilt
and
brattish.
He
loves
wine,
women
and
partying
all
night.
But
he's
not
a
bad
guy
in
his
heart.
Nana
plays
a
taxi
driver.
The
story
begins
at
mid
night.
It
is
a
24-hour
story.
Jai
meets
Raghav
by
accident
and
their
lives
start
changing.
This
film
was
shot
in
one
schedule
in
45
days.
Is
that
right?
It
was
super!
It
was
great
fun.
We
don't
intend
to
be
funny
in
the
movie.
But
when
you
watch
it,
you'll
laugh.
It's
funny
and
emotional
at
the
same
time.
Your
co-star
in
the
film
Nana
Patekar
was
brilliant
in
Bluffmaster.
What's
he
like
in
Taxi
9211?
He
is
outstanding.
He,
himself
told
me
that
he
hasn't
seen
his
movies
Bluffmaster
and
Apaharan
but
Taxi
9211
is
a
film
he
really
wants
to
see.
He
generally
shoots
his
films
and
moves
on.
But
he
is
really
curious
to
see
how
this
film
has
turned
out.
When
he
sees
both
of
us
in
the
poster,
even
he
wonders
what
two
diverse
characters
are
doing
in
this
movie!
In
this
film
you
have
a
line
"Mujhe
tees
minute
ki
journey
teen
minute
main
karni
hai."
It's
a
guy
who
is
always
in
a
hurry.
Is
there
a
Jai
in
John?
That's
what
Milan
Luthria
did.
He
took
a
lot
of
me
in
this
character.
He
believed
that
if
the
casting
is
right,
he
would
not
have
too
much
work
in
terms
of
the
performances
of
the
actors.
He
was
very
smart
to
choose
me
as
Jai,
who
is
very
restless
by
nature.
He
is
probably
very
generous
and
light
hearted
at
the
same
time.
Raghav
Shastri
on
the
other
hand
is
a
man
who
is
always
frustrated.
The
casting
in
this
film
was
very
important.
The
music
of
the
film
is
doing
quite
well.
Which
is
your
favorite
song?
My
favorite
is
Ek
Nazar.
It
is
my
introduction
song
in
the
movie.
I
found
it
very
melodious.
I
also
liked
Boombai
Nagariya.
In
recent
times,
you
have
a
host
of
movies
to
your
credit
like
Viruddh,
Garam
Masala,
Zinda
and
Taxi
9211.
Is
it
a
deliberate
move?
It's
just
a
gut
feeling.
I
just
take
up
what
my
heart
tells
me
to.
I
put
myself
in
the
place
of
the
audience
and
wonder
how
they
would
appreciate
a
certain
movie.
There
are
times
when
my
gut
feeling
is
wrong.
But
I
try
not
to
fail
the
audience
too
often.
You
come
across
as
a
very
laid
back
kind
of
guy.
But
after
Water,
Deepa
Mehta
has
been
raving
about
you.
Is
it
something
you
have
been
working
on?
I
had
to
take
Water
very
seriously
because
of
the
kind
of
clothes
and
walk
I
had
in
the
film.
I
play
a
Gandhian
in
the
film
and
so
I
wear
a
dhoti
throughout.
I
had
to
learn
Sanskrit
and
also
how
to
play
the
flute.
I
actually
had
to
change
my
walk
in
the
movie
because
I
play
a
Gandhian.
I
could
not
walk
like
a
hero.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
I
believe
that
the
hero
of
the
film
is
the
director.
She
has
signed
you
for
her
next
film
Komagata
Maru.
Apparently,
she
has
approached
Amitabh
Bachchan
for
a
role
in
the
film.
Is
he
on
board
yet?
He
is
interested
in
doing
it.
But
unfortunately
because
of
his
illness,
I
don't
think
the
movie
will
start
before
late
this
year
or
early
next
year.
What
is
the
one
great
thing
about
Taxi
9211?
It's
a
great
story
with
a
great
screenplay.
It's
a
screenplay
like
you've
only
seen
in
Rang
De
Basanti
probably.
The
USP
of
the
film
is
its
director
Milan
Luthria.
People
will
be
pleasantly
surprised
by
this
genre.
I
saw
this
movie
on
the
rough
cut
without
any
background
music
or
dubbed
songs.
And
I
cracked
up!
It
worked
for
me.
I
was
crying
in
the
end.
If
it
worked
for
me,
with
being
in
the
movie,
I'm
sure
it
will
work
for
others
around.
People
always
associate
you
with
motor
bikes.
When
did
this
fascination
start?
I
have
loved
bikes
since
I
was
in
the
6th
standard.
My
cousin
had
a
750
cc
bike.
When
you
are
really
young,
it
looks
huge!
So
I
decided
to
buy
a
bike
one
day.
The
passion
has
always
been
there.
Then
Dhoom
happened
and
it
only
helped
my
cause!
Lastly,
we
have
to
ask
you
this
question
for
the
sake
of
your
female
fans
and
also
all
the
aunties!
When
are
you
getting
married?
Well,
Bipasha
and
I
have
decided
that
we
will
speak
about
marriage
when
we
are
ready
for
it!
At
this
point,
we
haven't
spoken
about
it
since
we're
not
ready
for
it.
We're
waiting
for
the
right
time.
It
could
be
four,
five
or
even
seven
years!
