Jealous, John?

Jealous, John?

John Abraham couldn't take it when director Vivek Agnihotri gave Arshad Warsi equal footage in his film Goal

Arshad Warsi Filmi friendships are forged fast and forgotten even faster. Suddenly, things have gone awry between John Abraham and Arshad Warsi. And it didn't take much for a cold war to spark off between the two. Apparently, the ultra-cool John didn't take it too well when he realised that Bollywood's favourite second-fiddle Arshad was getting equal footage in Vivek Agnihotri's Goal. No one realised that anything was amiss as John likes to be politically correct and he didn't make a show of his displeasure. But the friction became difficult to ignore when John refused to hug Arshad in one of the scenes. A source from the unit of Goal reveals, "The scene required John to hug Arshad, but John refused outright. Instead, he asked Vivek to change the scene. Vivek blatantly snapped, 'Please keep your personal problems aside and then come to work.' Arshad kept his cool and he didn't show any disrespect for John or Bipasha." John and Arshad play soccer champions in the film and they needed to reflect camaraderie on screen. At first, it was fine but by the end of the schedule they had too many issues. They would maintain a safe distance. "Arshad was feeling homesick and he wanted to come back because Maria was pregnant. He would sit alone all the time. It did not help that he was even staying alone. John and Bipasha thought that he was acting pricey because his films Lage Raho Munnabhai and Kabul Express were a hit," our source says. John Abraham However, John finally managed to get his way. "He was able to twist Vivek's arm to get more scenes. They re-worked many scenes to make sure that John gets the limelight," says our source. Arshad seems to be upset, but prefers not to talk about it. Director Vivek Agnihotri says, "This is untrue. Nothing happened on the sets of Goal, and I don't have any idea about John and Arshad fighting. I don't know if they have personal problems, but they were extremely professional and didn't give me any trouble." Bipasha, however, threw tantrums quite openly. "She would get irritated if Vivek would call her to the sets and make her wait for some time. She would throw a fit saying, 'Why do you call me when you are not ready with the scene?' This would upset Vivek, but he was helpless. He had to finish the film," says our source.

John- Arshad War!!
[14 May 2007]

A cold war has sparked off between John Abraham, the handsome hunk of bollywood and Arshad Warsi aka Circuit during the shooting for Vivek Agnihotri's ' Goal' in London. Both the stars are playing the characters of soccer champions in the film but John Abraham did not like the director giving Arshad Warsi equal importance in the film sequences. John thought himself to be a bigger star than Arshad and hence wanted more scenes in the film for himself. The dislike between the actors reached to such a proportion that John refused to hug Arshad as required for a particular sequence of the film.

As an eyewitness explains, ' The scene required John to hug Arshad, but John refused outright. Instead, asked Vivek to change the scene. Vivek blatantly snapped, ' Please keep your personal problems aside and then come to work.' Arshad kept his cool and he did not show any disrespect for John or Bipasha.'

In fact, when Vivek Agnihotri had started the London spell for his film ' Goal' a few months back everything was hunky-dory between John and Arshad and the two had even developed a friendship between them after working together in Kabul Express. John Abraham had even made a guest appearance on The Bigg Boss which was being hosted by Arshad Warsi. But as the schedule progressed several contentious issues cropped up between the two. One of the reasons was the Arshad's homesickness as his wife was pregnant and he would sit alone on the sets and this would give signal to others that he was acting pricey after the success of his films Lagey Raho Munnabhai and Kabul Express.

Meanwhile, director Vivek Agnihotri has buckled under the John- Bipasha's star pressure and reworked some sequences which give more limelight to Johan Abraham than Arshad Warsi. Arshad knows thsi but has decided to keep mum for the time being. But the tension between the two was clearly visible on the sets as they would maintain a safe distance from each other while doing their part of work with professionalism.

However, Bipasha Basu, who bore the brunt of some white racism in London due to her skin colour, would openly throw tantrums on the sets if called by the director before the shot was ready and she was made to wait for a few minutes. But Vivek Agnihotri tolerated all this as he had to complete the film on time otherwise the budget would have skyrocketed. All for a good Goal, what say!
