It was not just a happy day for John Abraham's fans but also for the actor himself, who launched the trailer of his upcoming film
Parmanu - The Story Of Pokhran. The actor who was last seen in
Force 2 is delighted to return to the silver screen after two years. John said that he is happy to return with a film like
Parmanu - The Story Of Pokhran. When asked about the reason behind the actor's absence post
Force 2, the 45-year-old actor told news agency IANS, "I like taking time for the right subject. So, I am very happy to wait for two years and come back with this film." He added, " After
Force 2 I could have signed 10 films out of insecurity, but I didn't do that. As a producer, I have the authority to decide what kind of film I want to do and what not."

Parmanu - The Story Of Pokhran.
John Abraham, who has also produced many films, said, "I am not only an actor, I am also a producer now. So, I am very clear in my mind about the kind of film that I want to make. I was sure from the beginning that we are not equipped to make an adult comedy, we can make films like
Madras Cafe,
Vicky Donor and
Force.

Dhoom actor, who has experimented with a variety of genres from comedy to action, will be seen playing an army officer in
Parmanu - The Story Of Pokhran. The film also features Diana Penty, Boman Irani, Yogendra Tikku and American actor Zachar Coffin among others. The film draws inspiration from the Pokhran nuclear tests which took place in Pokran (Rajasthan) in 1998. Directed by Abhishek Sharma, the movie will release on May 25.
