Abbas Tyrewala's 1:800 Love will be a debut of his wife Pakhi who will share screen space will John. It seems that both John and Abbas are comfortable with on-screen romance between Pakhi and John.

Abbas clarifies that he will not face any problem in directing onscreen romance between his wife and John this movie has no explicit love scenes.

First thing that comes to mind when we think of John are his hot looks. The sizzling actor now plans to change it. John wants people to know him for his acting rather than his physical appearance.

John says, "I know Abbas and Pakhi well. They make a beautiful couple. There's absolutely no awkwardness about doing a love story with the director's wife. Pakhi has co-written the script and knows her character and mine, in and out."

John adds: "I'm hungry for acting challenges. But most of the time my physicality comes on much too strongly on screen............ My physicality always takes precedence. But you know what? I'll change that. I've been in this industry only five years. People have started looking differently at me after Dostana. The body was talked about. But when they praise my performance it really feels good."
