/> Under normal circumstances real-life couples tend to stay as far away on screen from each other as possible. After the fiasco Madhosh two years ago John and Bipasha had decided not to work together again for a while.

Explaining his decision to come together with her again in Vivek Agnihotri's Goal John says, " Bipasha and I just didn't have the opportunity to come together. What was being offered wasn't tempting.

Both Bipasha and I feel Goal works as a whole. It works for both of us as a whole. Besides I've played A-division soccer, I captained my football team in school and college. Soccer is in my blood, just like bikes."

So which one does John prefer? "Soccer was a favourite in school. Bike now. I never rode bikes in school, so football was my passion then. Doing Goal is like catching up with my past. Bipasha and I shot it in a three-month schedule in London."

As for the resurgence of sports films, John is all for it.

"It feels great to have sports films. If after watching Shah Rukh Khan in Shimit Amin's Chak De India girls started playing hockey and if after watching me in Goal kids take up football, then great! Cricket brings out the passionate patriot in all Indians, why not soccer?"

As a youth icon John takes his responsibilities very seriously. "As an actor it's important for me to be a very good role model. Whenever I consider an offer this responsibility is always in the back of my mind."

John is happy with his roles in life. "I'm happy with my clothes brand, calendar and my movies. I want the brand John Abraham to outlive the man. It's important for me to build a brand name for myself. "
