B-town is soon going to witness a new pair ‘On screen’. Yes, you heard it right; we are talking about handsome hunk John Abraham and beautiful diva Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. It was earlier reported that, Sanjay Gupta is all set to starts its new project named, ‘Jazbaa’, with Aishwarya, who has confirmed to play the lead; this would be her comeback film.

Now the latest development is that John would be also joining the cast, he going to play a role of hardcore gangster in the film. Apparently, the role John will be playing in the film has been modeled on gangster Abu Salem after he was extradited to India. However, despite the character being crucial to the film, John's role may not be very big in ‘Jazbaa’.

Confirming the development, Sanjay Gupta says, "Yes we have roped in John for the film. However, I cannot comment on it right now."

This will be the second time John would be paying a real life criminal, earlier; the actor essayed the role of real-life gangster, ‘Manya Surve’, in ‘Shootout a Wadala’. The actor was been well praised for his role. The real life encounter movie was been directed by Sanjay Gupta only.

This time again, the actor and director are teaming up, with the same kind of role and same genre.

Jazbaa, which is said to be an action drama, will feature Aishwarya as the main lead, alongside John. However, more details of the cast members are yet to be finalized. Jazbaa is expected to go on floor in early 2015.
