John Abraham Not Interested In Posting Bare Body Pictures On Social Media- Questions The Work Of Those Who Do!
John Abraham, whose film Romeo Akbar Walter (RAW) is set to hit theatres tomorrow, has something to say to those who live their life only on social media but their body of work is zilch
John
Abraham, who’s gearing up for his next release Romeo Akbar Walter (RAW),
tomorrow is not very active on social media when it comes to sharing updates of
his personal life. All the posts on his page are related to his films or some
initiative the actor is connected to.
During a
promotional interview with Mumbai Mirror, for his upcoming film, Raw, the star
was asked why does he not update fans on social media with his day-to-day
happenings, to which the actor, in return, raised questions on the body of work
of those who only post bare body pictures on their handles.
“There are
so many social media stars today but what have they really done in cinema? Have
they done anything that has impacted cinema? The answer would be probably no. I
think it is important to let your work to do the talking. It’s very easy for me
to stand bare-bodied on social media and keep shooting. I can do 40 different
types of exercises and update on social media,” replied John.
The Satyamev
Jayate star also spoke about not being a follower and creating his own space,
"I wanted to create a space for myself and I wanted to live in that space.
If you are concerned about a certain culture, then you land up in every party
or a camp. I am not a follower. I don’t know how to do that. I don’t know how to
follow people or belong to a camp. I don’t understand that culture. It doesn’t
exist in my head."
John was
also quoted by the tabloid, saying that he doesn’t beg for films. He said,
“This is why I do my kinds of films. I don’t go to any director and beg for
films. Because I believe I can create my own content. I am not saying my
content is best in the world but at least today when anyone goes to watch a JA
Entertainment film, they believe there’s something different about it. I am not
saying that I try to do a Rs 100-crore film or a Rs 200-crore film, I just want
to create a different story that you could possibly enjoy. That’s why I keep
myself private,” Coming to his comment on social media stars, well, that's
quite upfront and looks like John's statement will definitely rub a few the
wrong way.
