'Do
celebrities
have
a
social
responsibility
to
conduct
themselves
in
thoughtful
ways
in
the
public
eye?'
is
a
question
that
weighs
heavily
on
Bollywood.
For
John
Abraham,
it
is
very
important
to
be
socially
responsible
in
the
entertainment
industry.
He
thinks
that
we
have
a
very
impressionable,
young
population
with
60
to
65
percent
of
the
population
being
below
the
age
of
40.
So,
celebrities
are
not
just
models,
they
are
role
models.
In
an
interview,
he
said
that
celebs
should
say
the
right
things
even
if
it
takes
effort,
or
else
they
should
shut
up
if
they
don't
know
what
to
say.
"Don't
go
about
belting
crap
out
there,"
he
said.
John
Abraham
also
spoke
about
pushing
for
women
to
be
as
dominant
as
men
in
the
industry.
He
said
that
he
has
been
developing
female-oriented
scripts
but
is
finding
it
difficult
to
sell
them.
When
John
was
asked
if
women's
portrayal
on
screen
has
changed
over
the
years,
he
said,
"To
be
honest,
Satyameva
Jayate
had
an
item
song.
Sometimes
you
have
to
do
things
according
to
what
the
film
demands.
We
are
developing
female-oriented
scripts
in-house
and
we
are
finding
it
very
difficult
to
sell
them.
I
am
someone,
who
will
be
pushing
for
women
to
be
as
dominant
as
the
men
in
this
industry."
He
continued,
"I
want
to
make
films
which
are
socially
relevant
and
powerful
for
women,
but
we
are
still
to
come
to
a
time
when
studios
will
not
come
and
say,
'The
numbers
on
this
film
are
going
to
be
this
much
if
it's
going
to
be
woman.'"
On
the
work
front,
John
was
last
seen
in
Anees
Bazmee's
ensemble
comedy
film,
Pagalpanti.
He
has
three
movies
lined
up
for
release
in
2020:
Mumbai
Saga,
Attack
and
Satyameva
Jayate
