The search for actor Daniel Craig's successor as the iconic character, James Bond, is still on. How about an Indian actor as 007? And how about John Abraham, specifically?

The action star has emerged as acclaimed filmmaker Shekhar Kapur's first choice! In a cute interaction on X on Saturday, Shekhar first tweeted, “As the search of the next Bond heats up, my vote for the next James Bond after Daniel Craig would be John Abraham. He has the cool ‘shaken not stirred’ persona and certainly good actor with the ‘Bond Charm’ By the way Daniel Craig was cast as James Bond after the producers saw him in my film Elizabeth. #JamesBond #JohnAbraham @TheJohnAbraham.”
