Vidya’s Comic Connection With John



After trying her hand at romantic films, Vidya Balan is set to shift gears to the genre of comedy. Currently working on Vishal Bharadwaj’s Ishqiya, she has just signed David Dhawan’s comic caper Hook Ya Crook. What’s more, she’ll be paired opposite her Salaam-E-Ishq co-star, John Abraham.

As you may remember, during the shooting of Salaam-E-Ishq, the duo was linked up courtesy their awesome onscreen chemistry. There were even rumours of tension between Bipasha Basu and John as she couldn’t digest their alleged proximity. Since then, John diplomatically avoided doing films with Vidya. However, when asked to comment on this piece of information, John found the question too ‘stupid’ to react. Now we know why!

Anyway, coming back to the film, it was initially supposed to have the lead pair of Siddharth (Rang De Basanti fame) and Amrita Rao. Perhaps it was John and Vidya’s sizzling chemistry in Salaam-E-Ishq that prompted him to change his decision. At least Bips has no reason to fret this time, as it’s not a romantic saga but a comic flick.
