One thing John Abraham likes about being an actor is that it allows him to expand his horizons.
He may not have needed any training to ride the bike for Dhoom , but John certainly did learn to play the flute for his role in Deepa Mehta’s film Water .
Now, John is learning to play the guitar for his lead role in director Imtiaz Ali’s next film ‘Rock Star’ which will be a musical revolving around John’s character.
John believes just pretending to play the guitar for his role won’t do as the audiences today have become very intelligent to figure out the real from the fake. So the actor is ready to get his fingers calloused and learn to play chords and riffs on the guitar.
The actor apparently has a good sense of tempo. So he doesn’t have much difficulty in getting the timing of the strumming right. What he is finding tough is to learn the finger positions on the fret-board and getting the chord progressions right.
