Dabboo Ratnani's 2020 calendar shoot has already created quite a stir among netizens for the bold and sensuous photos of celebrities like Kiara Advani and Bhumi Pednekar. The photographer has been allegedly accused of plagiarism by an international photographer for one of the photographs and joining them is the self-proclaimed fashion police Diet Sabya who has picked out John Abraham's photo from the acclaimed calendar.

While netizens drooled over the recreation of John Abraham's pose from his film Dostana, this Instagram based fashion watchdog begs to differ. Diet Sabya claims that the actor's pose with the white towel is a copy of actors Sushant Singh Rajput and Antonio Banderas' previous stills. He shared John's pictures alongside others in similar poses and called it a 'gandi copy'(bad copy) through the caption.

Diet Sabya asked his followers whether John Abraham's shirtless picture with only a towel has been a deja vu experience for them. The pose has been used by Raabta actor Sushant Singh Rajput in one of his photos and other international stars have also tried their hands on the almost-nude theme for candid photo shoots.
