The trailer for John Abraham’s The Diplomat is out now, featuring a powerful ensemble cast, including Sadia Khateeb, Sharib Hashmi, Revathy, and Kumud Mishra. Released on the birth anniversary of the late Shri Sushma Swaraj, the trailer pays homage to her pivotal efforts in 2017, supporting Indian diplomat J.P. Singh in bringing India’s daughter back home.
Setting the stage for an intense political thriller, the film highlights how tact and negotiation—rather than war—are the protagonist’s ultimate weapons. John Abraham steps into the role of real-life Indian diplomat J.P. Singh, who embarks on a high-stakes mission to rescue the ‘Daughter of India’ from captivity.
Speaking about the film, John Abraham shared,
“Diplomacy is a battlefield where words carry more weight than weapons. Playing J.P. Singh allowed me to explore a world where power is defined by intellect, resilience, and quiet heroism. Uzma’s story is a testament to India’s strength and courage, and I’m proud to bring this inspiring journey to life on screen.”
Producer Bhushan Kumar shares,
“At T-Series, we believe in supporting stories that truly matter—ones that inspire, connect, and leave a lasting impact. The Diplomat is a perfect example of content-driven cinema, and it’s a story we felt needed to be told. I’m proud of the team for bringing this heartfelt narrative to life with such honesty and dedication.”
Director Shivam Nair adds,
”The Diplomat is a tribute to the unsung heroes who wield strategy and patience to protect their nation. Through J.P. Singh’s story, we’ve captured the art of diplomacy—where tact triumphs over aggression—and John’s performance perfectly embodies this spirit of resilience and strength.”
Producers at Wakaoo Films adds,
“As producers, we believe in backing narratives that have the power to move and inspire. The Diplomat is one such film that captures the strength of human resilience, and we’re proud to see it come to life on screen.”
