MUMBAI: Fitness freak John Abraham has a new lead for you. The uber fit and hunky actor, and star of Abbas-Mustan’s ‘Race 2’ is all geared up for the Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon, as he unveiled the new lead vehicle yesterday afternoon.

We spotted the hunky actor and ‘Housefull 2’ star John Abraham looking macho in a white tee and jeans. The actor-producer, who tasted success as a producer with ‘Vicky Donor’, was all smiles as he launched Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon’s lead vehicle: a spanking new BMW in Mumbai.

‘Johnny Bravo’, as John is sometimes known, was accompanied by Christian Saffer, Director of Marketing, BMW India Private Limited, during the launch of Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon’s lead vehicle.

Said the super sexy star, of his association with the Marathon: “It’s been seven years I have been part of Standard Chartered Marathon. I enjoy being part of it. This year again I am the brand ambassador, it feels great.”

“I am the brand ambassador of Mumbai Marathon because it stands for Mumbai and supports more than 220 NGOs. For me doing social work and supporting NGOs is more important than endorsing a brand.”

John Abraham has a slew of big-ticket films lined up this year, including Abbas-Mustan’s multi starrer action-thriller ‘Race 2’, Goldie Behl’s ‘I, Me Aur Main’ and Sanjay Gupta’s real life crime drama film ‘Shootout at Wadala’ (releasing in May). To which John excitedly said, “I am really excited about all the three films.”

We also learnt that John will be sporting a rugged look for his next home production ‘Madras Café’. The film is reportedly a political thriller, and John will be essaying the role of an Indian intelligence agent. John revealed: “This look that I have is for my next home production after ‘Vicky Donor’ and that is called ‘Madras Café’. It is directed by Shoojit Sircar and produced by JA Entertainment. We are very excited about the film.”
