He may fool you with his phirang attitude but the truth is brand India has sunk into John. Two years back, this English speaking actor would have squirmed and hawed at the very thought of mouthing dialogues in chaste Hindi. Not out of disrespect for the national language but because it didn't come ‘naturally'.

But when the acting bug bit him there was only one profession that Abraham could turn which would take care of his living standards – the movies. And thus began his journey of meeting producers and directors with his portfolio, just the way his girlfriend Bipasha Basu did. And to find out if Abraham was making a fine job of his search, Bips insisted on one golden rule for survival. "Never let down the underlings for they are the only real people around us who speak the truth," she always maintained.

So the cabbie, personal driver, cook, washerman, the bai and the barber have a special place in his heart, who get an occasional treat from their ‘saab' when they pass on honest feedback about their fave actor now. Good Abraham. Well begun is half done, they say. And now that you know the truth about yourself as an actor, how about getting some acting tips from someone who could take you right up there to the top?
