On the other hand PTI reported a source close to the actor saying the story has another side too, in an attempt to grab John's attention, a fan scratched him and grabbed his T-shirt. John turned around to grab hold of the fan and pulled him up for his irresponsible behaviour, following which he proceeded to his car. Watch the Trailer:

PTI report mentions a statement issued by his spokesperson on behalf of the actor, saying.

"The episode has been blown out of proportion. John would never hurt a fan intentionally. The fan even met John at his residence to apologise to him for his irresponsible behaviour." The alleged incident happened yesterday after the trailer launch of John's upcoming film "Force 2".

John will be seen in Force 2 also starring Sonakshi Sinha and Tahir Raj Bhasin.
