When asked about the introduction of Ayushmann Khurrana and his own experiences as producer, the actor reveals, “With newcomers its always difficult to sell a film or to say to people this film is great but its got newcomers��_ but I believe that I wouldn�۪t have done as good a job in this film as this boy has��_ the toughest part of being a producer is to sell a concept”.

Pablo quizzed Abraham about whether it’s easy to get sperm donated in India. Abraham answers, “Its not actually that difficult, the film�۪s going to give a great message out, its gonna talk about donors, sperm donation, fertility clinics, surrogacies��_it will address many issues but in an entertaining manner”. Abraham also divulged that the movie is about a man who makes money by donating sperm.

The 39-year-old talked about why he chose to turn producer at this time as asked by Raj. He confesses, “I think its natural progression, its something I wanted to do. There�۪s noone that kind of supports the cinema I do like Kabul Express,��Water, No Smoking��_ and I decided that if I started to make films, I�۪d make sure I�۪d give it a platform”.

Raj&Pablo’s full interview with Abraham will be featured on 21st April live at 11am��on Love Bollywood on the BBC Asian Network.
