John Abraham opened up recently about the state of Hindi film industry and called it ‘scary’. He said that it worries him to see that there are few people left who want to make a difference.
During an interaction with Bollywood Hungama, John was asked about the current state of the industry and he said, “It is very, very scary. As someone who looks out to the Hindi film industry, I am very worried. I am not saying that I am the flagbearer of doing something different, but I am saying that there are few of us who want to make a difference.”
He added, “I am a commercial hero! You put me in a commercial setup, and I will hopefully bag it through, but I am saying that when we want to make a difference, we should be allowed and be given the freedom to do that. That final bridge where we get that extra buck to do what we want to, if that comes through then we as an industry can grow. Because we are making good films now and I know everyday someone writes an obituary about our industry but we are making good films.”
The actor was recently seen in the political-thriller The Diplomat which released in theatres on March 14.
