John Abraham Works Hard For His Action Hero Persona

John Abraham will soon be seen in Rocky Handsome where he goes against a drug mafia to get revenge for the kidnapping of an 8-year-old girl. The actor follows the policy of leaving no stone unturned when it comes to action sequences, and also a few broken bones cannot stop him. For the film, John had to undergo martial arts training.

Talking about the film, the actor revealed, “Action is just the icing on the cake. Director Nishikant Kamat and I were very sure that we wanted hand-to-hand combat kind of raw sequences in the film. We wanted to make the audiences' jaw drop. I had to learn a special art form called Aikido and Hapkido, for which I had to be trained in Thailand”. John added that he was just like any other student while learning the art form and not John Abraham, the celebrity.

The Force actor also revealed that he broke his knee while shooting for Force 2. “I had three surgeries on my knee, I have broken both my legs, I suffered a hairline fracture on both my arms, and I have broken my wrists, and cracked my skull”, he added. John feels that broken bones are part of the job. “Whenever anyone tells me that they feel sorry for me, I tell them... I have signed up for action, if I have to break my bones, so be it. I love this space”, he stated. The actor will be seen in his killing machine role as Rocky Handsome hits theatres on March 25.
