He will be teaming up with filmmaker Sanjay Gupta for an action flick.
"I did 'Force' and that worked for me. The audience appreciated me in the action space. I am doing another film with Sanjay Gupta and it happens to be an action film," John told PTI.
Nishikant Kamath's 2011 directorial venture 'Force' brought the 'Jism' actor in the action space.
"For me, coincidentally, the action space is open... the space for a raw action hero. I am not one of those heroes who jump on cables... I do raw action. I think the last guy who did it was Sunny Deol in 'Ghayal'. So I want to occupy that space," the 40-year-old maintained.
"I would love to work with Akshay. With Akshay the film that we should do together should be like 'Garam Masala' or 'Desi Boyz.' I feel Akshay and I share same positive energy. We get along very well. So whatever we do I guarantee it will work," he said.
