"The story is very positive and John and Nagesh were very confident about it. Even when it got delayed they stayed confident and never lost hope. Everyone was pleasantly surprised to know of this sweet and considerate gesture of both of them. They feel it's completely worth it," the source added.
Aashayein is a story of a compulsive gambler, Rahul Singh, played by John who discovers new meanings of fortune and life through a dramatic turn of events.
