The principal shooting for ‘New York’ is complete and the film is currently into post production. Meanwhile, John too would be soon moving to his next two projects but in the interim, he can't stop gushing about his experience of working with Kabir Khan again after ‘Kabul Express’.

"The way Kabir has directed the film is to be seen to be believed. I guess he is the new man on the horizon. Mark my words, he is the one to watch out for", says John who returns to yet another Yash Raj production after ‘Kabul Express’ and ‘Dhoom’.

"It was one of the longest outdoor schedules I have been a part of and probably the most exhilarating too. We shot for the film day in and night out at Philadelphia and New York. Eventually, we ended up being ahead of schedule. I am confident that I have yet another beautiful film in hand", adds John.

Talking about his experience on working with the film, John says, "All credit to Adi (Aditya Chopra) and Kabir for making such a film. Whether it was story built up or characterization, they have worked so hard on getting it all just right for the film. Also Katrina Kaif and Neil Nitin Mukesh have been fantastic co-stars. The film is a dramatic thriller and a completely new kind of experience for me. As an actor, I feel enriched."

Meanwhile, his ‘Aashayein’ was earlier all set for release in the first half of 2008 but got delayed due to multiple reasons. In fact the publicity built up of the film had seen a rise way back in April' 08 before it came to a grinding halt after a few weeks. Now the buzz is that ‘Aashayein’ is expected to release in January 2009
