<p>"I have tried Bipasha's workout DVD personally and found it to be equally good for men as well, although it is meant for women. I just think that I should follow her routine now," John told reporters here today.<br /><br />"She is in the most amazing shape. When I looked at her recently, my jaws dropped as I said this can't be for real. This is the best; she is in the prime shape of her life," the actor said.<br /><br />Bipasha, who is known to be a fitness freak, has created a unique workout programme lasting 25 minutes in 'Love Yourself' launched last week.<br />Asked when would he launch his own fitness DVD, the 37-year-old actor quipped by saying he would take another 15-20 years to do it.<br /><br />"I won't do it now. After 15-20 years, when I am fitter, I will launch my DVD," he said adding that Bipasha plans to launch another DVD for men and women.<br />On why he has had no release after last year's blockbuster 'New York', John said he is now concentrating on doing selective and qualitative work.<br /><br />"For success it is important to do less work. I want to do qualitative work now. Earlier the scripts of the films I did were not good. I have now learned through the process and doing selective and qualitative work." <br /><br />Recalling his modelling days, the actor said graduating to Hindi films was a natural progression for him.<br />"As a model, I was John Abraham. But as an actor, I am not John. I assume the character of the role I am playing. For these six months, I am not working. So I am John now," he said.<br /><br />Describing the script of a film as the "real hero" of any film, John said while signing a film he tries to look at the broader picture rather than looking at any single aspect.<br />"I look at the entire set-up before signing a film - the director, producer, actors, and the script. But I think that a script is the real hero in any film," John said.<br />The actor said he was amazed by watching Rituparno Ghosh's 'Sob Choritro Kalponik', which also starred Bipasha Basu.<br /><br />"I was stunned as I saw the film. It was such a beautiful one. I sat through every moment in the film. Bengali films have such beauty. In Tamil films also, the treatment of romance is done in a good manner," he said.<br />He was in the city to promote Kolkata Fashion and Lifestyle Week, which begins later this month.<br /><br />Asked about his favourite designer, he said Narendra Kumar and Rocky S have been his long-time favourites.<br />"I have been wearing clothes only from two designers since a long time - Narendra Kumar and Rocky S," he said.</p>
