John Abraham has replaced Akshay Kumar in Welcome Back, a sequel to Welcome, and says that the Bollywood Khiladi is ‘happiest’ for him. In the 2007 hit comedy Welcome, Akshay played the main lead.
‘Akshay is like my elder brother. Whatever I do, I always have a lot of discussions, especially with him. Akshay is happiest for me when I told him that I am doing Welcome Back. He said it’s a very good film and you should do it,’ the 40-year-old said.
‘It’s an outstanding script, kids will love it and I am looking forward to doing it,’ he added. John has reportedly charged Rs 15 crore for Welcome Back, but did not confirm the news.
‘As far as money is concerned, I don't talk about money at all as I think it's not as important. I charge because I think I deserve it. But I give it to charity because I think that's more important,’ John said. John's next film is much-talked about real life-based crime thriller Shootout At Wadala, in which he is playing gangster Manya Surve who was gunned down in the police’s encounter.
