John Abraham a 'guardian angel' on MTV's Roadies |

John Abraham will be playing a guardian angel in MTV's Roadies Season 8. Interestingly, John's character in Roadies is named 'Sid' after the character he plays in the upcoming movie Jhootha Hi Sahi.

The return of Roadies was announced by the hell raiser Raghu Ram who is also acting along with John in Jhootha Hi Sahi. The movie is directed by Abbas Tyrewala and also stars Abbas's wife Panki and Manasi Scott.

"It's a very different role of a simple guy, just like the contestants of Roadies. It's a great film and I am very proud to say that the entire cast and crew has done a fantabulous job," John told reporters at the event.

"Jhoota Hi Sahi is one for guys who want to see a young, fresh film. It's probably in the space of a Notting Hill in terms of its freshness," John said.

In the movie, John plays a man named Sid whom the actor describes as a liar! "Sid loves to lie. He lies to get his love back without cheating," he said.

Just like the character in the film, John will lie and confuse the contestants but will leave a clue to cross the edge and win the contest.

"Sid loves to lie. He lies to get his love back without cheating and the beauty about the clues here (in Roadies) is I will help the contestants bend the rules but will make sure they don't cheat," said John.

Sid Helpline would be available to the contestants of Roadies Battleground 3-Highway To Hell from time to time, allowin them to pick up the phone, dial the number, speak to Sid and he will tell contestants on how to bend the rules, get ahead and win at any cost.
