The FIFA World Cup is round the corner and it seems the Race 2 actor is a great enthusiast:
Get ready to live the magic of the 2014 FIFA World Cup with Bollywood actor-producer and sports enthusiast John Abraham who will join a stellar line up of football icons – Peter Crouch, Robbie Fowler, Peter Shilton, Mikael Silvestre, Ellyse Perry and Sunil Chhetri – to reinvent primetime football viewing in India. The FIFA mania is due to begin June 12 and it will go on till July 12.
Sony SIX is bringing two live marquee shows Cafe Rio and Football Extraaa on all match days, and John will be part of “Cafe Rio”, a primetime wrap around show where he will interact and analyse matches with “some of the greatest legends of football”. ”I am totally ready (to live the magic). I have football in my DNA. It is something I have grown up playing and not just me, I’m going to get the whole of India to live the magic with me,” John told over phone from Mumbai. ”This year, thankfully, there are all convenient slots of World Cup games – 9.30 p.m., 12.30 a.m., 3.30 a.m and 6.30 a.m. IST. As many as 64 matches are in the 9.30 p.m. slot and some of the big matches too, including one with Germany vs Portugal. It’s going to be great viewing experience for the Indian audience,” he added........
