Hold onto your popcorn, because the Vivek Agnihotri-John Abraham feud is spicier than a Mumbai street chaat, and it’s serving up drama hotter than a summer blockbuster! This clash, rooted in their rocky past, has escalated into a public showdown, with John throwing the first punch and Vivek countering with a verbal knockout. Let’s dive into the Bollywood beef that’s got everyone buzzing in 2025.
The feud ignited when John Abraham, in an August 2025 interview with India Today, took a bold jab at Vivek’s The Kashmir Files, a National Award-winning film that grossed nearly ₹300 crores. John called it a politically charged movie that sways audiences in a “hyper-political environment,” vowing never to make such films, alongside Chhaava. Vivek, not one to stay quiet, hit back in an NDTV interview, dismissing John as a “biki and protein guy” who should focus on “riding motorbikes and showing his body” rather than critiquing films. He argued John, no “historian, intellectual, or writer,” lacked the depth to judge The Kashmir Files, and questioned why Hindu-Muslim riots should be off-limits for filmmakers. Vivek defended his work as a voice for the common man, reflecting real societal issues.This isn’t their first clash. Their history dates back to the 2007 film Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal, where Vivek criticized John’s dialogue delivery, claiming he struggled with “five lines in rhythm” and leaned on his footballer image. The shoot was messy, with John’s breakup with Bipasha Basu and creative disputes with Anurag Kashyap adding fuel. X posts reflect the divide, with some praising John’s “spine” for calling out “propaganda” films, while others back Vivek’s bold storytelling. As Vivek gears up for The Bengal Files on September 5, 2025, this feud proves Bollywood’s drama is as gripping as its movies.
