T Series and PPC's Aashayein, directed by Nagesh Kukunoor unveiled yet another facet of actor John Abraham -- that of a singer.

A musical evening for the film saw John performing to the number Ab Hai Ujala  alongside Shankar Mahadevan, Zubin, Shafaquat Ali, Salim-Suleiman among others at the amphitheatre, Bandra Fort.  While John admits to a "sincere effort", music director Salim avers that "John will be appreciated in the inspirational number.'

Producer Bhushan Kumar feels, "This film is an inspirational movie by Nagesh and will bring to light the true spirit. Also John was the perfect choice, as he is a youth icon who has given his career-best performance in Aashayein."
