In the movie, John assumes the character of J.P. Singh, a diplomat from India, who finds himself in a distressing situation as he endeavors to aid a young Indian woman named Sadia Khateeb in escaping an arranged marriage and safely returning to her homeland.

After premiering in theaters on March 7, 2025, The Diplomat is set to become available for streaming on Netflix. This exciting news was officially announced when the movie’s first poster was unveiled on Instagram, revealing Netflix as the film’s streaming partner. Although the specific OTT release date has not been disclosed yet, eager fans can look forward to experiencing this nail-biting thriller on Netflix following its cinematic run.

Currently, in terms of his professional life, John Abraham recently appeared in Vedaa, a film directed by Nikkhil Advani and featuring Sharvari Wagh as co-star, marking their first joint project.
