In an exclusive conversation with TopMob, John Abraham shared insights about the anticipation surrounding The Diplomat, as the film was finally released following numerous postponements.

In this situation, both John and Shivam Nair found the movie sensible. However, the studio was the one that seemed to lose confidence in the project. To clarify, the actor from Vedaa mentioned, “When a studio views the film, it often circulates it among Over-The-Top (OTT) platforms as a way to reduce risk by offering it to an OTT channel. Some OTT channels declined The Diplomat because they didn’t find it impressive, and ultimately, they turned down the movie.

John acknowledged that studios may feel apprehensive and sometimes their fears are warranted. Yet, he proudly declared, “Contrary to the common belief, in the instance of The Diplomat, we managed to outsmart both the studios and the OTT platforms, as well as everyone else’s expectations.
