Actor John Abraham says that his upcoming film ‘New York’ is an honest and objective film on how the world and especially America looks at a certain community post 9/11.

"It also dwells on how the community looks at the world and America as well. But it is not a jingoistic America bashing film. It shows both sides of the coin," John said in an interview.

Fresh from last year's success of Karan Johar's ‘Dostana,’ directed by Tarun Mansukhani, John said he is ready to venture into a different genre with ‘New York’.

John said the reactions to his ‘Dostana’ look have been overwhelming and amusing. "I am happy that people are looking at my body and appreciating the look," the actor said.

"It is a thriller and probably the best role I have done so far. I think it has been a tailor made role for me and I am proud of being a part of ‘New York.’ I was born to do this role. It is a very realistic film," the debonair model turned actor said.

Speaking about his role, John said he plays Sameer or Sam whose life revolves around his two friends Umar (Neil Nitin Mukesh) and Katrina Kaif (Maya). A sequence of events leading to 9/11 happen and the life of all three friends undergoes a change. "All three are Indian students who have met on the campus of an American university," he said.

This is John's second film with director Kabir Khan after ‘Kabul Express’.
