John Abraham ready to donate sperm

Bollywood star John Abraham’s first home production ‘Vicky Donor’, which has been directed by Shoojit Sircar, is all set to hit the cinemas on this April 20. ‘Vicky Donor’ revolves around the still taboo and continues issue of infertility among the nation as a result to which many in the industry believe it will face a lot of criticism. However, the actor thinks otherwise.

John is hoping that his film will spread much awareness about sperm donation and it will be something much beneficial, especially for the childless couples.

“Ever since the promos started airing we’ve been getting mails and calls from fertility centres on how they can pitch in, without even seeing the film,” he exulted.

The 39-year-old admitted the fact that the concept of sperm donation is considered as something highly immoral in the Indian society but on the other hand the actor claimed there are also people who have agreed to him.

“Recently, I brought up the subject with three such youngsters, one of whom said she would adopt if she couldn’t conceive, the other said sperm donation was absolutely out and the third admitted that it would be an option only if all other alternatives were exhausted,” said John.

John, who after appearing in several advertisements made his Bollywood debut in 2003 with ‘Jism’, in the end, remarked that he will proudly donate his sperm for public good. In the meantime, he insisted that if he does so, it will not be for any commercial gains.

“Even in India, soldiers and border security forces are known to do so when going to war or manning troubled areas,” he adds. So will star producer John Abraham donate his own sperm for public good? “Why not?” he retorted.

Well, all said and done, John Abraham has certainly come up with a very good idea because there are many childless couples in India who desperately want a child.

Nevertheless, it should be kept in the mind that it is a very risky business since in over 70 percent cases the females don’t end up pregnant.
