John Abraham is currently in the spotlight due to his recently released film ‘Veda’, which launched on August 15. While the film has garnered a good response from audiences, it seems to be struggling at the box office against other releases like ‘Stree 2’. Additionally, John Abraham is making headlines not just for his film, but also because of a bold statement he made regarding societal issues that many prominent stars have shied away from addressing.
John Abraham’s Shocking Statement Shakes Things Up
During promotions for his film, John spoke out about a tragic incident involving a rape and murder case in Kolkata. He emphasized the importance of men understanding how to treat women and ensuring their protection. His comments, made on Ranveer Allahbadia’s podcast, have drawn significant attention and sparked debate.
The Protection of Women, Children, and Animals
John Abraham expressed his concerns bluntly, stating, “My sole purpose in life is to create a change in society within my small world. I want to give status to animals. The condition of animals in India is becoming worse. It’s saddening that there isn’t a single law for the safety of animals. You can debate with me about anything else, but not this. Women, children, and animals are not safe in India. You cannot debate this with me.” He further acknowledged that India is primarily a man’s world and added, “It’s unfortunate, and because I love India.”
JOHN ABRAHAM has said what superstars have avoided… but be prepared for criticisms from the BJP IT cell.
John’s Concerns About the Country’s Conditions
John elaborated on what it truly means to be proud of one’s country. He explained that simply saying “My India is great” does not prove one’s love for the nation. Real patriotism stems from actively trying to bring about societal change. John’s statement clearly indicates his distress over the rising incidents of rape and harassment towards women in various regions across India.
Current Status of His Film ‘Veda’
As for John’s film, ‘Veda’, the performance at the box office has been disheartening. Both ‘Veda’ and Akshay Kumar’s ‘Khel Khel Mein’ have faced similar fates. Predictions indicate that neither film might recover their budget. In just six days, ‘Veda’ has collected a total of 16 crores, while ‘Khel Khel Mein’ made slightly more with 17 crores within the same timeframe.
Box Office Performance Comparison

| Khel Khel Mein | 17 | 6 |
As fans and critics alike await the future of both films, John’s fierce advocacy for social issues continues to resonate, promising to keep him in discussions far beyond box office numbers.
