John Abraham who has not signed a film for over two years has finally broken his spell of celluloid celibacy. The actor, who hadn't signed a single film since Anees Bazmee's Welcome Back, finally said yes to his pal Rohit Dhawan's Dishoom.
Ironically the shooting of Dishoom got delayed primarily because the other leading man Varun Dhawan, who's the director's brother, had no dates to spare until July 2015.
Says a source close to the project, "The film would have rolled around January 2015. John who has a clean slate this year gave immediate dates to his buddy Rohit Dhawan. But Rohit's kid brother, who plays the other lead, was busy completing and promoting two back-to-back projects Badlapur and ABCD 2. Varun is finally free to for his brother."
Says Varun's father David Dhawan proudly, "Varun doesn't even have time to say hello to me. I guess this is what every father dreams of. That his son should become busier than the father."
