Kat, John denied entry in NY Pub

While in New York, John Abraham and Katrina Kaif had the shock of their lives when the bouncers of a swanky nightclub in New York did not permit them to enter the club.

Reason: John and Katrina did not have any identification proof with them. To add to their embarrassment, the bouncers paid no heed to their words when they told them they were top film stars from India.

The story goes that John and Katrina accompanied by Kabir Khan, director of New York had gone to a night club when the trio had to go back and fetch for some identity proof to enter the club. By the time, they returned, the party had almost ended.

Our source informed, “A crew member wanted to celebrate his birthday. He invited everybody to a new nightclub in New York. After a hard day’s shoot, the entire gang left for the night club.”

The source further added, “While the crew members went ahead in one car, John, Katrina and Kabir followed in another. When they were stopped at the nightclub, they tried to reason with the bouncers that they were well known and respected people from India. John and Katrina told them that they were film stars from India but the bouncers only stared at them. The bouncers had no clue what John and Katrina were talking about. They called the crew members, who were inside but they too were of no help.”

The trio went to their hotel to collect their IDs, a 60-minute drive from the night club. By the time they returned to the club, the party excitement had died down. They stayed at the nightclub for some time, but sadly the night had already been spoilt for the top film stars from India.

John Abraham injured while shooting for Hook Ya Crook

John Abraham has hurt his leg again while shooting for David Dhawan's Hook Ya Crook on Tuesday at Chikelwadi in Tardeo.

At the Star Screen awards on Wednesday night, a source noted, "John was seen limping. He was seated in the front row, and was seen pulling up his right trouser leg and checking his foot several times. When people around him asked, he informed them that he hurt himself on the sets of Hook Ya Crook."

John's doctor had prescribed pain medication and rest for a couple of days. But John not only completed his shot but shot the next day again and attended both the Screen and Lions Club Awards the same night. David Dhawan confirms, "We were shooting an action scene where John had to slide down a 20-foot pole. He slipped and gashed his leg badly on the pole. But he behaved as if nothing had happened, completed the shot and only went home after completing his work for the day.

He refused to take any medication on the sets and said he would go to doctor later. John is a very nice guy and thorough professional. Now he's shooting with me for the next three months." John admits, "Yes the gash was bleeding a bit at the Screen awards but it's normal for us actors to have these small accidents while shooting. It's all part and parcel of a film shooting and we are not supposed to complain. David has been very cooperative and I wouldn't say or do anything to stall his shoot.

I am loving shooting for this comedy film. Though we are shooting actions sequences it's more fun than action." John, who plays a cricketer in Hook Ya Crook, had last hurt himself in a bike accident in 2008 where he had to be hospitalised for a week.
