John can never hurt anyone

[1]

John Abraham might be a heartthrob for the rest of the world but to Firoza Irani, he will always be her little boy.
The actor-producer’s mother is no stranger to fitness herself as she was a basketball coach in her younger days. “Yes, I was a basketball coach for girls and it was lovely passing on all my knowledge to the players.

I was a hard core trainer. I remember while training the girls, both my sons who loved playing basketball, would just disappear,” she smiles.
About her star son’s childhood days, she adds, “Mothers always appear strict because bringing up the kids is their responsibility. John did love me but me being a strict teacher, a little bit of hatred would creep in. However, he was a very disciplined kid right from his childhood days. Once taught, he would never deviate from his daily routine.”
She continues, “I did not have to spare the rod and spoil John. He was an obedient child. Therefore, he turned out to be a good football player and now a good actor/producer. I do not know much about his filmy arena, but I trust my child as we have inculcated all the values which keep him grounded in spite of belonging to the world of glitz and glamour.”
About life’s other lessons imparted to John, those about love and marriage, Firoza says, “I confide in John and whatever lessons, about being sincere in relationships, which I have taught him I am sure he will practice in life. John will give tough competition to the old saying, ‘A son is a son until he is married…’ I am sure he will always be by my side and also will never deprive the lady of her space. Unquestionably John will get married when he is destined to do so.”
She continues, “I am happy that my sons are good human beings which is very important today. John can never hurt anyone. But yes in today’s day and age, at times he has to take the right stand. But that too he will do so as not to hurt anyone. He has a tender heart within his strong and robust persona.”
Standing next to his mother, John himself chips in, “My mom is my confidant, friend, philosopher and my ultimate strength. We have learnt to respect our parents and we will never cease to do so ever.”
