John Abraham decides to walk in the footsteps of Shah Rukh Khan – here’s how

The Attack trailer has certainly met expectations in more ways than one, with a terrific amalgamation of futuristic sci-fi elements and slick action against the backdrop of neatly crafted and more important, believable VFX, plus, obviously, a brawny John Abraham doing what he always does best – pummeling bad guys to a pulp. To launch Attack’s trailer today, 22nd March, the film’s producer and lead star, John Abraham, along with his two heroines in the movie, Jacqueline Fernandez and Rakul Preet Singh, and also co-producer Jayantilal Gada of Pen Movies, besides the Director, Lakshya Raj Anand, arrived at the prestigious Cinepolis Fun Republic Mall in Andheri West, Mumbai, before a huge media contingent, where they address several queries from the press.

Now many of the journalists and paparazzi gathered couldn’t help but notice that the Attack poster had Jacqueline Fernandez and Rakul Preet’s names appear before that of John Abraham. When quizzed about it, the star replied, “It was a conscious decision (to put the actresses’ names before his). As a producer my actors are very, very previous to me. And Jacqueline and Rakul are both very previous to me. So, yes, I hope this trend (of putting heroines’ names first) catches on. ” Also Read – Attack trailer 2: John Abraham’s classy action-thriller looks impressive; actor set to offer something never seen before

If one were to jog their memory a bit, then the first big star to do this in Bollywood was Shah Rukh Khan, back in 2013 when he had ensured that Deepika Padukone’s name appeared before his in the credits. Incidentally, just like John, SRK was also the producer of Chennai Express. So, is the brawny hunk following his Pathan costar’s footsteps? Well, if he does, they’re certainly some amazing footsteps to follow, aren’t they? We hope more actors also take a cue from them.

Speaking on why he bet on the script, John Abraham added, “Somebody had told me that Parman was the worst script that person had ever read. And the industry has many such examples of good scripts getting rejected. So, I really don’t mind taking a bet on such scripts (like Attack). ” Attack also stars Prakash Raj, Ratna Pathak Shah and marks yesteryear actor Kiran Kumar’s return to the big screen after a gap of 4-5 years. The movie is slated to release in theaters on 1st April.
