John Abraham considers Rohit Dhawan as a brother

John Abraham, who is gearing up for the release of his forthcoming actioner "Dishoom", says the film's director Rohit Dhawan is like a brother to him.

Talking about his equation with Rohit, John said in a statement: "I share a beautiful working equation with Rohit Dhawan...He is like a brother to me, he knows the best way of presenting me on screen."

John also shared that Rohit, who is the brother of "Dishoom" co-actor Varun Dhawan, says his sensibility is "cool yet massy".

"I think he and I make a great team," John said.

"Dishoom", which will have Varun and John playing police officers named Junaid and Kabir, also stars actress Jacqueline Fernandez.

The film is slated to release on July 29.
