Actor-producer John Abraham denies being in the star cast of Indian cricket captain Dhoni's biopic "MS Dhoni - The Untold Story".

It was reported that John would play fast bowler Ishant Sharma in the biopic, which will see Sushant Singh Rajput in the title role. But he said it's not true.

"Rubbish. If someone is spreading some rumour for facilitating some film, it's his or her problem. It's utter rubbish", he told reporters.

The biopic will be directed by Neeraj Pandey, and will take the title "MS Dhoni - The Untold Story".

He added that he would be busy with "Welcome Back".

"This Christmas and New Year, I am shooting for my film 'Welcome Back' and my plan is only to work round-the-clock. Maybe I'll get a day off and spend time with my family", said John who lives a disciplined life.
