Before 'Pathaan' hit theatres, John Abraham did not have a pleasant experience there. Even Shah Rukh Khan's detractors praised John Abraham's portrayal of the ominous yet sophisticated Jim. With movies like 'Dhoom,' 'Race 2,' and, of course, 'Pathaan,' John Abraham has always been a solid action star. In contrast to masala comedies or entertainers, it appears that he is now more interested in the action genre. His withdrawal from '100%,' Sajid Khan's comeback project, is reported by an entertainment website. Riteish Deshmukh, Nora Fatehi, Shehnaaz Gill, and John Abraham were included in the film's star cast announcement.

John Abraham doesn't seem to be in the mood to make action movies now that 'Pathaan' has been a box office success. 'Awara Pagal Deewana 2' was another project for which the actor was being considered, but he has since lost interest.

According to the latest report, John Abraham wanted to "diversify his line up with comedy and masala entertainers," but that has since come to a standstill. The handsome man was in early discussions for ‘Awara Pagal Deewana 2.’ John Abraham doesn't seem interested in acting in a comedy anytime soon. According to a source who spoke to the portal, "While he has backed out of 100%, the conversations of Awara Pagal Deewana 2 have taken a back seat with the makers already exploring other options."

John Abraham's career has greatly benefited from Pathaan. In the next two years, Yash Raj Films will begin production on a spin-off movie based on his persona. The hottest thing in Bollywood right now is The YRF Spyverse. The source continued, "Yash Raj Films and John have discussed this idea and believe the character has enough potential to blow big."

All John Abraham admirers will be happy to hear this. He received a lot of praise from Shah Rukh Khan, who said that the action movie needed him as the backbone. John was a huge assistance to him the entire time.

The handsome man is overjoyed to witness the support for ‘Pathaan's Jim. John Abraham portrayed a rogue agent who turned into a contract terrorist after the government disobeyed his family's and his wife's protests. He expressed his gratitude for ‘Pathaan's status as a legendary box office success.
