John Abraham, known for his high-octane action image and interesting comedy films, had planned a lineup of films blending both genres. However, the massive success of the Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone starrer film Pathaan seems to have changed his mindset. As per recent reports, John has decided to exit some of his projects, including the Sajid Khan film 100%, as he is currently keen on pursuing his image as an action star.

John was looking to diversify his lineup with comedy and masala entertainers too. In fact, he had signed on for 100% directed by Sajid Khan and was in advanced talks for Awara Pagal Deewana 2. But the success of Pathaan has changed it all and John isn’t in the mood to do a comedy film anytime soon.

The conversations for Awara Pagal Deewana 2 have taken a back seat with the makers exploring other options. It is also mentioned in the reports that John is yet to finalize his action films, but there are talks with YRF (Yash Raj Films) for a spin-off film on his Pathaan character Jim, although no official announcement has been made.

In terms of his upcoming films, John will be seen next in Dinesh Vijan’s Tehran, co-starring Manushi Chhillar. He is also expected to collaborate with T-Series and Shivam Nair for a geo-political thriller. It’s clear that John Abraham’s success in Pathaan has made him reconsider his film choices and focus on his image as an action star, leading him to walk out of the Sajid Khan film 100% and other projects.
