John Abraham, Akshay Kumar 'share Beautiful Relationship'

IANS, 16 Jul, 2015 12:09 PM

Actor John Abraham has replaced Akshay Kumar in "Welcome Back", the sequel to blockbuster "Welcome", but says their bond is still strong as ever.

"When I signed 'Welcome Back', the first person I called was Akshay. I don't know how relationships pan out in our industry, but I love him. Akshay is like my older brother. And he was so happy and told me, 'you do the film' and 'Anees (Bazmee) bhai is a brilliant director'. He was very excited and encouraging," John told the media at the shoot of a song with lead actress Shruti Haasan.

John and Akshay have acted in "Garam Masala", "Housefull 2" and "Desi Boyz".

"I have worked with him (Akshay) in several films and I've learned a lot from him. And if there is a first trial of the film, then perhaps we would call Akshay first because he'll be very happy to come. I'm happy to have a good friend in Akshay and we have a beautiful relationship," John said.
