John Abraham and Akshay Kumar have entertained audiences with their comedy films for years. Their on-screen bond in ‘Garam Masala’ (2005) and ‘Desi Boyz’ (2011) made them one of Bollywood’s most loved comedy pairs. Fans have been waiting eagerly to see them together again, and recent talks suggest that a reunion might be on the cards.
In an interview with Pinkvilla, John Abraham spoke about the possibility of working with Akshay Kumar again. When asked about a sequel to ‘Garam Masala’ or ‘Desi Boyz’, he said, “Yes, we are very excited about making either or both of those films happen because they’ll be fun. For me, working with Akshay is like going on a holiday. He’s a nice bloke. So we’ll have a good time.”
John also spoke about the strong chemistry he shares with Akshay. He said, “I don’t think two actors have had the kind of chemistry Akshay and I have had.” Their past films have been full of light-hearted moments and hilarious scenes, making them a favourite among fans of Bollywood comedies.
‘The Diplomat’ actor also shared his love for the comedy genre. “I love comedies. When you go to the theatre, you want to laugh. So I think comedies are fun,” he said.
Their journey as a comedy duo began with ‘Garam Masala’, a film that showed off their fun and easy-going on-screen relationship. The success of this film led to more projects, including ‘Desi Boyz’ and ‘Housefull 2’.
John and Akshay not only share great on-screen chemistry but also a strong off-screen bond. John spoke about their friendship, saying that both of them have similar lifestyles. “We both wake up early; we both sleep early. He’s truly very disciplined. I believe I’m a little more disciplined but let him take that throne of being disciplined,” he joked.
Although nothing has been officially confirmed yet, the enthusiasm from John can surely give hopes to fans. On the work front, John’s latest film ‘The Diplomat’ hit the screens on March 14, according to a Sacnilk report, the total of the movie after a 7-day run is Rs.19.10 crore, just an inch away from the Rs.20 crore mark.
