First, he refused to sport a mouche for his role as a cop in Vipul Shah's film opposite Asin, and now John has put his foot down and doesn't want to wear a cop uniform.

Even though the role is that of a police officer, the actor has asked the director to change the role from a cop to a narcotics officer.

A source reveals, "John didn't want to be seen in the khakhi attire throughout the film.

So he suggested they change the script and make him a narcotics officer so he can be seen in formal jackets etc."
