Aashayein brings back John's old memories

When you say Pondicherry, one thinks of a little French town on the coast line, beautiful beaches and sultry afternoons...but that was not the reason why John Abraham requested Nagesh Kukunoor to shoot Aashayein in Pondicherry.

John Abraham finds Pondicherry as his lucky town and has some fond memories of the place. This is the same place where John shot for his first film Jism with Bipasha Basu in 2003. John loves this place very much. In fact, every time he feels low, he visits the place and it completely refreshes him. Also as a town, he feels that Pondicherry has a very positive vibe and thought it would do with the theme of 'Hope', Aashayein...

Smiles John Abraham, "I love Pondicherry, it was the same place from where I started my film career in 2003 with Jism. This place makes me feel good and comfortable. When we were shooting at Pondicherry for Aashayein, I used to get this deja vu feeling...I actually revisited all the places that we had shot the film earlier. I would take walks all alone on the beaches and spend time alone in tranquility with the nature. This place always leaves me with hope in life...and never seizes to bring a smile."
