Similarly, Bollywood actor John Abraham is also a fitness freak. He is a pure vegetarian and does not compromise with his diet. John also spends hours in the gym and takes no junk food to keep body in shape.

An interesting fact is that both Dhoni and John are good friends and get along well with each other. Recently, while promoting his movie Parmanu on Star Sports, John revealed how he and Dhoni met for the first time.

Narrating another incident when the two of them tried to jump over a gate, John said: “We once went to my office to get the bikes out and found that the watchman had fallen asleep and the main gate was locked. So, we both jumped from the side and went in.

But while coming out, we had to go over the gate. I don’t know how he did it, but in a few jumps, he made it over the gate easily. I thought if Mahi can do it then so can I, so I ran and did the exact same thing. My pants got stuck in the gate and tore.

Honestly, he’s really athletic. I follow cricket as and when I have the time. Besides that (MS) Dhoni is one of my closest friends, so even if I wanted to I wouldn’t be able to stay away from cricket.”
