John Abraham will act in a film intended to give an anti-smoking message.
The film, titled 'No Smoking', will be made by Vishal Bhardwaj in joint production with Kumar Mangat, who is also the co-producer of Vishal's much-awaited film Omkara .
Although Vishal is busy in giving final touches to 'Omkara' – that hits the screens on July 28 – plans have already been drawn to make a feature film that will give an anti-smoking message in an entertaining way.
So far only John Abraham has been signed for the movie.
Ironically, John is a non-smoker. He smokes at rare occasions or when he is playing a role that requires smoking.
Vishal Bhardwaj has achieved a unique fusion between art and commercial cinema through films like Maqbool and Makdee .
His 'Omkara' is an adaptation of Shakespeare's Othello.
