Recently, in a conversation with ANI, Abraham shared what drew him to the film, describing it as an "emotional, edge-of-your-seat psychological thriller" rather than just another patriotic story.

You won't move when you watch that film; you'll just be glued to your seat. That feeling is what I got from The Diplomat."

The Diplomat is produced by Bhushan Kumar & Krishan Kumar (T-Series), John Abraham (JA Entertainment), Vipul D Shah, Ashwin Varde, Rajesh Bahl (Wakaoo Films), and Sameer Dixit, Jatish Varma, Rakesh Dang (Fortune Pictures/Seeta Films).

Finally! Been waiting for this since it left theaters. John Abraham always delivers solid performances in these intense roles. Hope it lives up to the Argo comparison 🤞

Saw it in theaters - totally worth the watch! The tension-building is brilliant. Though I wish they'd shown more of the diplomatic negotiations rather than just action sequences.

Psychological thriller with diplomatic backdrop sounds interesting. But I hope it doesn't turn into just another chest-thumping patriotic drama. Need more nuanced storytelling in Bollywood.

Already set a reminder! 🎬 Love that it's releasing right before the weekend. Perfect for a movie night with friends. Hope the OTT experience does justice to the theater version.
