John Abraham is currently riding high with the success of his film Batla House. The film has done quite well at the box office and John’s performance is being appreciated a lot. The actor has his kitty full with films like Pagalpanti, Mumbai Saga, Attack and Satyameva Jayate 2, and now, according to a report in a tabloid, the actor is keen to remake English-French film The Transporter in Hindi.
John confirmed the news and told the tabloid, “Well, there have been talks for a fact. I won’t deny it. But honestly, I am not supposed to comment more on it."
The Transporter starred Jason Statham and it will surely be interesting to see John stepping into the shoes of Statham. The film was converted into a franchise and there was even a television series made on it. Action is a genre, John has excelled in. Even his fans love to watch him in action movies. The actor has been nowadays concentrating on movies that are inspired by true events and if The Transporter Hindi remake takes place it will be interesting to see him doing something different.
This year, John had two releases, Romeo Akbar Walter and Batla House. While the former was an average grosser at the box office, the latter is a super hit. He will next be seen on the big screen in Pagalpanti which is slated to release in November this year. The movie also stars Anil Kapoor, Arshad Warsi, Pulkit Samrat, Ileana D’Cruz, Kriti Kharbanda, and Urvashi Rautela.
While talking about Pagalpanti, earlier John had stated, "Pagalpanti was a fun ride, and I was happy to connect with Arshad Warsi after such a long time. It is a huge upgrade for me over my last film with Anees Bazmee (Welcome Back).”
