But how did he end up bagging Mumbai Saga in the first place? Vivaan Parashar answered, “I had acted in a short film with Naseeruddin Shah called ‘Skin of Marble’, which won a lot of acclaims. Nadeem Shah, Sanjay Gupta’s Associate Director, saw the film and showed it to Sanjay sir. They felt that I would fit the part of Sadashiv. I was then asked to go through rigorous look tests and go through a complete makeover to see if I fit the character. After a month of this process, I finally bagged the film! It was a very special moment.”

Talking about his experience with John Abraham, Vivaan Parashar said, “I have said this before and I will say it again, John bhai is like family for me now. I was anyways a big fan of his, but now even more so. There were many incidents that prove how good he is. Let me share one… Once he was performing a scene and I was standing behind him. In between takes, he just looked at me and said.. ‘Vivaan I hope I’m not covering you. In case I am, tell me please.’ That one line says everything about him. The fact that he was also looking out for his co-actors says so much about how nice and accommodating he is. I will never forget that.”
John Abraham is truly a gentleman and there can be no better proof!
