Bollywood actor John Abraham, whose body sends the adrenaline rushing amongst women, gives the entire credit to Bollywood Superstar Salman Khan.

“Salman Khan is the reason for most Indians to go to the gym!” said John at Sony Entertainment Television’s show ’Lift Kara De’.

Filmmaker cum host Karan Johar has a whale of a time with John Abraham this week on the show.

Karan even ragged John about his fabulous abs.

“The last time I saw you, you were coming out of the water in yellow shorts…” and that too looked overdressed according to Karan!

Blame it on Team India’s swashbuckling skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Apparently, Rs 30 crore is riding on David Dhawan’s Hook Ya Crook. Only the climax remains to be shot of this John Abraham film. And, for a change, it’s not the film’s hero but the hero of the cricketing world who’s reportedly causing the delay.

According to sources, a 20-minute shot featuring a cricket match between India and South Africa remains to be canned. It was to be done last year, but recession bled the film’s production house to the tune of Rs. 100 crore on various other projects, and what with one thing or the other... the expensive climax of Hook Ya Crook got put off.

Now, Dhawan cannot get Dhoni’s dates. It’s bad enough trying to get the two teams together. But what can the poor man do, this cricket finale has to be done, it’s the core interest of the plot. And while everybody is ready, MSD apparently is unavailable for the time being.

Meanwhile, John’s loss is Salman Khan’s gain. Keeping aside Hook Ya Crook, Dhawan has picked up the long-delayed sequel to his 2007 hit Partner for Salman Khan’s production house. Salman and Govinda remain the main leads but Katrina Kaif and Lara Dutta are no more part of the franchise. Salman’s Veer co-star Zarine Khan will be one of the heroines of Partner 2. The other one is not yet known.

Bollywood actors John Abraham Salman Khan are not in good terms with each other for quite some time now. Their relationship seems to have worsened after the rumours of John's affair with Katrina Kaif hit the headlines.

Following the reports of the close Chemistry between Katrina Kaif and John on the sets of New York, Salman is said to have expressed his unhappiness to his ladylove. And now, John and Katrina are avoiding each other. They are promoting their film New York separately.

John has decided to stay away from Salman's television show Dus Ka Dum, and so Katrina has to appear on the show with actor Neil Nitin Mukesh, whom she thinks is the cutest actor in Bollywood.

Well, it looks like Katrina is doing her best to save her relationship with Salman!
