If John's long locks fire your passion too, here is some bad news. The guy is going to cut his hair to size for a role soon. And then go all-bald. "I am all set to get a bald pate soon. But just for one movie," says John.
And here we thought he was just trying to follow his sporting hero Zinedine Zidane. After all, John was in Germany for FIFA finals and must have seen the (in)famous head-butt first hand? "Yes Zidane is my favourite player and I was cheering for him and then this happened.
It was such a disappointment. Actually I started the World Cup backing Brazil. When they lost, I started cheering Germany. After they got out of the game, I started rooting for France. And the rest is history."
There is another French connection that John has. "When I was recuperating after my accident, I read a lot of Asterix and Obelix. I wanted to have the magic potion and go boom. Jokes apart, I did a lot of introspection... about who I am," he says.
John says he is so much at peace with himself now that rumours of a split with Bipasha also failed to affect him. "The media can go on about this topic but I don't care.
And I would stick to what I have said before, Bipasha on my bike remains my favourite combo," John says, and then goes to add that there is another woman in his life. "And that's my mom. I fight with her every two minutes and we patch-up the next minute."
