While there were some die-hard fans of Bipasha Basu too at the event who screamed 'We want Bipasha' it was Abraham who was on the mind of most of the thousand strong young crowd.

The star took the idol worship in his stride and announced that Delhi was one of his favourite cities.

"I am not saying this to be politically correct but Delhi is one of my favourite cities. I have been coming here since my modelling days and I have some good friends here. The city is known for its really pretty women and really tough men," said John Abraham while the crowd cheered wildly.

"I have a very simple fitness rule, healthy food, exercise and no drugs and alcohol," said the actor who is currently on a special fitness programme to help him lose the chiselled musculature he had worked up for his role in the gay comedy 'Dostana'.

"He is my idol, I would kill to get his T-shirt," said Abhinav Sood who had hoped to get Abraham's shirt but was over the moon that Abraham handed him a can of soft drink.

In 2008, John became the first Indian ever to feature in the '25 Sexiest Men' list compiled by ‘E! News’ and was ranked as the 7th sexiest man in the world. In the same year, UK magazine Eastern Eye named Abraham the ‘Sexiest Man In Asia’.
