"John Abraham has said that his girlfriend Priya Runchal has changed his professional life. The actor-turned-producer started dating the investment banker after ending his eight-year relationship with Bipasha Basu.   He told the Hindustan Times: &amp;quot;Priya has a sensible approach to life. And when your personal life is stable, it reflects in your professional space as well. It all comes together because I&amp;#039;m allowed to do what I want to do. I&amp;#039;m allowed to spread my wings and fly. I&amp;#039;m allowed to make the kind of films I want to, and I&amp;#039;m not questioned on anything. I am given a free rein and it&amp;#039;s beautiful. So yes, I guess that&amp;#039;s true. &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t go for award functions or parties. I have a problem with them. I don&amp;#039;t enjoy that space. My kind of crowd is regular. I love my industry and I&amp;#039;m proud to be a part of it, but they know that I won&amp;#039;t land up or dance. I&amp;#039;m principled in that way. And I think my credibility as an actor and a producer should speak louder through my films than gimmicks.&amp;quot; Last year, Abraham admitted that he had no immediate plans to get married to Runchal and was instead focusing on his family.  The Madras Cafe star also said last year that he does not want to expose his new girlfriend to the Indian press.
