Won’t Accept Awards Even For Dhishoom, Says John Abraham

Says the actor, “I never go for awards functions. I don’t want any awards. They’ve become a joke. I don’t think going to awards is wrong. But I can’t do it. Performing at these awards would make me feel  like a performing  monkey.”

John also has problem with dancing publicly. “I can’t dance on stage for 500 people. I can’t dance at functions. I’ve heard how people talk about actors who  perform on stage.To me it is a monkey act.”

He won’t  even attend awards functions for films involving colleagues. “If Dhishoom wins any awards Varun will be there dancing and clapping. I won’t.He is a sweet transparent boy.Maybe I don’t deserve awards.So I won’t get them. And I won’t go.”

John will continue to work his way through the projects he believes in. “I’ve no fear of failure.I’m like  a blinkered horse. I don’t look at the work other people  are doing. I concentrate on my own work.I don’t go for parties. I sleep by 9.30 pm.I meet some of my from my friends from the film industry when they are coming home after a party and I am on my morning jog. The beauty of this industry is acceptance.”
