John Abraham On Competing With Hollywood: Attack Is An Answer To That

Actor John Abraham is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Attack, which is all set to arrive in theatres on April 1, 2022. Earlier today, at the trailer launch event of the film, when John was asked to share his take on the constant comparisons between Hollywood and Bollywood, here's what he said...

"We wanted to make a film where the world would say, 'India mein bhi aisi films banti hai'. I want people to talk about the heroes and superheroes of India. They don't wear their underwear on their pants but they fight for the country. We have seen Avengers, White House Down, so why can't we have something like that in India? Attack is an answer to that," said Abraham.

Before Attack, theatres will witness the release of SS Rajamouli's RRR, which features Ram Charan, Jr NTR, Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgn in key roles. When asked if he's bothered about Attack's box office collection getting affected owing to RRR, he said that he and his team have been assured of good screens.

He further said that he has a lot of respect for Rajamouli and his kind of cinema. But he also has a lot of respect for what he and his Attack team have done.

"We are definitely not number two to anyone," averred John.

During the same interaction with media, when John was asked why he was keen to make Attack, he said that the film is for all the youngsters because of its reliability.

"Ours is a very forward film. It was essential to make this film because I believe this is a game changer. If the film is good, it will work. How much ever you promote a bad film, it will not work and even I have experienced that. I would say on record, Attack is a damn good film," said Abraham.
