John Abraham had to learn special art forms from Thailand - Aikido and Hapkido - for his new film Rocky Handsome.

The action thriller will present Abraham at his physical best.

In order to perfect these forms, special trainers were flown from Germany to train the producer and actor of the film, who admits his favourite genre of film, is action.

He said,“I trained for about one month, sometimes up to 14 hours straight in a special art form on knifes.

"When you have an athletic body and you couple it with great action the results can be astounding.”

Rocky Handsome releases on 25 March 2016
