John Abraham has joined the cast of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's comeback movie Jazba. Makers of the film were initially undecided about who to cast opposite Aishwarya, but apparently the actress herself keen on John joining the cast. According to reports, Aishwarya was very keen on John as the role required an actor who could not only do action but also has a fabulous screen presence. Director Sanjay Gupta was also of the opinion that John suited the role, but wanted his actress' consent before finalizing him. The political-thriller will go on floors in January next year. However, rest of the cast is yet to be finalized.
