The following is not meant to- to hurt the hearts, to promote sarcasm.
It is just ''bad'' view-point of a kid who got scared. So sorry again, don't get annoyed.
I wanted a separate category for this one, but alas, even Mouthshut loves the hunk...so posting this out here
I am defensive. Who wants to get beaten up by women who are mad after him, and when the number is even fatter than his flesh?
And then came him. John Abraham- the God, that the entire female population of India has been waiting for.His film-graph is Jism (a loser who falls in love and then loses his life), Saaya ( a doctor who said love is eternal and then tried to bring back the ghost of his lover), Aeetbar ( where he played a psychotic lover), and then Paap ( now that is a cop story trying to tackle fantasies of a Lama girl).
In all his films he plays characters which are Hysterical- now that is a coincidence. I am sure nothing to do with his eyes per se. Good, in fact, we all have methods in madness- why should not he choose his own methods.
But then, whenever he really goes mad, specially when he is angry ( he is rarely happy in his films), he crosses that thin line between being hysterical and obsessed. Remember Jism, and then whole of Aeetbar, and in Paap inside the car where he gets angry with the girl, while driving her from the capital to Lama Land. Beware of his anger, he does not shout, but he makes a sort of angry facial expression- while shooting someone, or asking someone to hide and all.
All are very happy about John?s amazing body. Okay, now for ?normal? reasons, it does not excite me, but so what. He is indeed, a strong man. In Ladakh?s extreme cold, he can dare to bare all. It is a different sort of change in fact.
When males are dancing to sway with Yana Guptas, and Priyanka Chopras?- the God sent John Abraham to maintain balance. And God said, come on John, entertain.
Yes, he has a good body thus he shows. Wish there would have been some association of males, like the females have who protested against poor Mamta Kulkarni?
True, if he has a good body why would not he, bare it all. But then, what was wrong with the Mallika?s and others? I wonder if a Man tries telling his wife, that I love- Yana Gupta?but yes wives and daughters? can say, I like John.
Perhaps, females did not have any?
Bare all Men- this trend started with Dara Singh- he was a wrestler, and he needed to bare all, to wrestle.
Then we had Macho men in Dharmendra. Now, he was handsome- in that Body sense. Yes, he acted very well in Satyakam ( probably his best) , Anupama ( too good), and many others, but he was probably the first sort of ?Body Hunks?. Did he bare? I guess, he wore a funny dress, in a Manmohan Desai film called Dharam Veer ( a skirt !!), but then he did not consider it to be a USP.
Then there was Zeevesko ( now don?t mind the spelling!!). You all remember him, at all, he was there in Amar Akbar Anthony- lost rightly to Amitabh Bachchan in wooing Parveen Babi.
The age of globalisation brought our very own Arnold Schwarzenegger- Suniel Shetty, in Balwaan. The name said it all. Yes, before that Amrish Puri ( played a wrestler in Ganga Jamuna Saraswati with AB and a crocodile), Salman was there with a bare act in Maine Pyar Kiya- but that was not all of it, or Akshay Kumar ( our Jackie Chan) in Saugandh. But then Suniel made it a routine.
The gym and muscles started becoming an integral part and Jackie, Sunjay Dutt ( who can forget him in Khalnayak), and even I thought Kader Khan put on some muscles.
Somewhere body did not become an integral part in acting but then it was not at all for health also. But it became a sort of all for some heroes. But still heroes tried to act. In fact, for Suniel and Akshay ( they learnt late but learnt) after the initial years of action films ( few of them were bare body acts though), things did change.
For Salman too. Apart from Veergati- a cynical film, none of his films were strip shows. He need not strip for his biggest hits.
No talk of bare bodies is complete without the mention of Sunny Deol. His best performance Damini ( mind you there he did not bare). But then Sunny got into the act, and he was bending iron rods, and he still does that- I don?t think he would change. He tried to be romantic, I remember the promos of one film, called Pyar Koi Khel Nahin where he was hugging a invisible woman with closed eyes- he failed. So, now he is flexing muscles and taking on neighbors. He would never change. He is one actor who is always there for the country- either as Indian version of James Bond, or whatever- if I start talking on him, I would go on.
The body show excited even Kamal Hassan and he was ?KOOL? in Hey Raam- only to scare.
But acting never took a back-seat and just stripping never became the most important thing to be.
With our new Johnny Boy- that is John Abraham, it has become? I know he is- cool, hot, happening and all.
But then all those actresses who are the same, why does not he do item numbers? Short, simple stuff.
Or then, if he is waiting to be like always stripping- then why not be like Stallone, or Arnie- do action films- play boxer and wrestlers.
But there is a problem perhaps- he is yet to mature as an actor. Yeah, I hope I chose the right words.
Then, what he should do, with for the first time, ?plunging necklines? for the males entering Indian films ?
But come on, dear ladies, I wonder, whether you would love to have your father with that hair-do which he sports.
Or say, imagine he looking at you always like John Abraham looks?
Then say, he is always roaming without a shirt?
You would say, why father- perhaps my husband.
Great. But then, you don?t want your mother also enjoy the privilege of just good looks?
I know weird logic, boring bad article, or what. But then beauty lies in the eyes of beholder.
I wonder whenever I look at John Abraham in totality. And I wonder more, why females fantasize so much on him.
There were days, when ladies loved Tom Cruise- but then Tom gave us films, where he gave performances, he did not scare away silly kids like me, who are males but yet appreciate.
John Abraham enjoys it too. Yeah few have this privilege, but then, he should shift a bit of focus.
Yes, he is yet to mature as an actor. If he does not mature, trust me, soon this hidden fantasies of ladies who think all their dream men should look like him, would die down, and then he would be sporting Lux underwear and banyan, and anyway Sunny is growing old!
John Abraham- his eyes scare me ( literally kills), his hair reminds me of hay ( because he can?t control it, all the time), his acting is far from being good- where his teeth is exposed in all his emotions.
He looks good?..perhaps I as a male found him good, when he wore a full length Lama dress in Paap, but then all of a sudden he got angry and beat some tourists up?..
John Abraham- hope none says, he looks a nice man, and he deserves to do well?.
All of us are, but wonder whether we sentimental Indians who bring our actors home, would love males in our family roaming around bare, all the time in our houses?
I know bad writings and all?.can?t help?..I just can?t define this ?neo-God??
