JOHAN ABRAHAM LOOKS CAN KILL



Looks can kill… your chances of being taken seriously as an actor. ANURAG KASHYAP thought it would be quite difficult to direct a good-looking JOHN ABRAHAM in No Smoking. He was wondering how this picture-perfect guy could ever make a picture perfect. Expecting the worst, Anurag was pretty impressed with apna Johnny Bravo.

The actor along with RANVIR SHOREY has a blast while shooting the film and mostly gave kashyap brilliant shots in the first take itself. That’s why we say to never judge an actor by his looks!
