“The amount of love I have got for 'Pathaan' is incredible. Playing an anti-hero and winning hearts is a very special feeling.”

John hopes Aditya Chopra is plotting his next move to develop his character from 'Pathaan', Jim, to make him an integral part of the fabled YRF Spy Universe that has only delivered hits! He says, “I hope I continue to be a part of this YRF Spy Universe and enthral you all with my craft and passion towards cinema.”
