A source reveals, "Recently, when Govinda met up with his favorite director David Dhawan, he was surprised to hear Dhawan singing huge praises of John. Dhawan is working with John in his upcoming flick, Hook Ya Crook.
David appeared very impressed with John and his spontaneity, and couldn't stop gushing about him to Govinda. That's when Govinda got curious about John's work in the movie. He wanted to see for himself why Dhawan was so impressed with John.
Then David called Govinda to his studio the next day and showed him a few rushes of their forthcoming film. The actor was pleasantly surprised to see John's energy on the screen and the innocence he brought to the character. He felt that John's acting skills made Dhawan's humor work perfectly for the film.
Since then, even Govinda can't stop gushing about John and has expressed his desire to work with him to Dhawan. "
