John Abraham is touted as one of the most bankable leading actors of the Hindi film industry. With an illustrious career spanning over 15 years, Abraham, who started his journey in Bollywood as a romantic hero in 2003's Jism, has now transformed into an action superstar. Over the years, the Dishoom actor has shared the silver screen with several leading ladies of Bollywood.

While most of his on-screen pairings were loved by the audience, some did not quite impress the masses. Last year, Abraham was paired with Ileana D'Cruz in Pagalpanti and Mrunal Thakur in Batla House. Thus, read to find out his on-screen chemistry with who among the two was loved more:

John Abraham and Ileana D'Cruz

John Abraham and the Barfi actor Ileana D'Cruz shared the screen space for the first time ever in director Anees Bazmee's action-comedy titled Pagalpanti, which released last year. Alongside Abraham and D'Cruz, Pagalpanti starred an ensemble star cast comprising  Anil Kapoor, Arshad Warsi, Urvashi Rautela, Pulkit Samrat, Kriti Kharbanda and Saurabh Shukla in the lead roles.

However, Bazmee's multi-starrer action-comedy could not manage to impress the audience much and received a thumbs down from film critics as well. Therefore, the film eventually ended up tanking at the box office due to the majority of negative reviews by the audience.
