John Abraham in The Diplomat
Bollywood actor John Abraham is basking in the success of his latest release The Diplomat, which hit the big screens on March 14. In a recent interview, John, who’s had a streak of flops after Pathaan in 2023 shared that OTT platforms had rejected The Diplomat but going by its run in the theatres, he proved them wrong.
Speaking with Pinkvilla, John Abraham shared, "The loss of faith happens from the studio. So when a studio sees a film it goes and does a round of OTTs because a studio may want to mitigate the risk by sending it to an OTT channel when some OTT channels have refused The Diplomat because they didn’t find it great. They didn’t find it good...They rejected the film; they threw it out.”
