John Abraham Walks Out Of Comedy Nights Bachao After Krushna Abhishek Makes Fun Of His Acting

  • John Abraham Walks Out Of Comedy Nights Bachao After Krushna Abhishek Makes Fun Of His Acting
John Abraham lost his cool and walked out of the sets of 'Comedy Nights Bachao Taaza' two days ago. The actor, who was on the show with Sonakshi Sinha to promote his film 'Force 2', was miffed with the way Krushna Abhishek roasted him.
 
“Krushna ridiculed John’s acting skills and that did not go down well with him. He left the shoot and Krushna even went after him to apologise and pacify him but John did not relent. 
 
Thankfully, the major crux of the show was already shot as Krushna and Sudesh’s act is always the last. We don’t know what was John expecting from the roast,” a source from the channel told. The channel is yet to take a call on whether the whole act of Krushna and Sudesh will be axed from the episode.
 
 
It was previously reported that during the promotion of John’s last release, Dishoom, he refused to appear on Comedy Nights Bachao due his reservation about the roast format. The Colors show might be raking in the TRPs, but in the recent months, there have been several incidents when actors have complained against the format of the show.
 
Krushna says, "John and I have known each other for many years now and he is the only Bollywood actor who called me when my father passed away recently. I am really sad that I upset him." So what exactly irked John? Krushna says, "I was cracking jokes on his earlier films like 'Paap'. That's when he told me that those were his favourite films.
 
Sometime later, when he refused to shake a leg with Sonakshi and me on stage, I realised that he was upset. He soon walked out and I ran after him, but he left. I want to apologise to him; I haven't slept since the last few days because of this. I specially flew down from my shoot in Kulu Manali because John had agreed to be on the show. I hope he understands and forgives me."
 
 
 
Over a month ago, Tannishtha Chatterjee had expressed disappointment and anger over the racist comments that Krushna had made on the show.
