Recently, John Abraham criticized celebrities for charging outrageous rates. He acknowledged that there is a problem in the industry and underlined the importance of content over star power.

John Abraham talked about how the excessive fees for actors are hurting the industry in a media conversation.

He said, "It is already hurting Hindi cinema. At this point in time, we should be paying people to act in films because we don’t justify those huge budgets. The huge fees that we get paid, and we can’t load a film with entourage costs as well. It’s ridiculous."

"I'm not sure if actors think this way or if their agents influence them to think differently," he said. One cannot be so foolish as to be unaware of reality, he said. "As an industry, we are really, really, really suffering," he told further.

The Diplomat actor went on to advise performers to reduce their personal expenses and to be mindful when a director tells them they are not worth the amount they are requesting. "We compare ourselves to other actors, and we want to broadcast our fees, and that’s the worst thing to do," he lectured.

John thinks that actors must acknowledge the difficulties facing the industry and concentrate on working on the rear of movies. "Actors should say that if the films make a profit, we make profits because we have earned our millions. How much more will you suck the system dry?" he mentioned.

However, John also pointed out that producers are ready to pay outrageous sums, so actors shouldn't be held entirely responsible. Instead of coming up with ideas, he insisted on making content-driven movies. He emphasized that no star can ensure a successful opening and recommended that the focus of a movie be on its content and that performers be chosen based on the script.

In his closing remarks, he also emphasized how studios prefer to play it safe rather than taking chances with actors who are not well-known. He expressed his opinion that this is one of the main things impeding the industry's progress.

The Diplomat by John Abraham will be published on March 14, 2025.
