John Abraham’s ‘The Diplomat’ Advance Booking: Slow Start, Hopes Pinned on Word-of-Mouth
March 13, 2025: John Abraham’s upcoming film The Diplomat is set to hit cinemas this Friday, but the advance booking trends suggest a slow start at the box office. Directed by Shivam Nair, the thriller drama is struggling to generate early momentum, with ticket pre-sales showing lukewarm interest from audiences.
🔹 Advance bookings opened late on Wednesday afternoon, just two days before the release.
🔹 Early sales are significantly lower than expected, with only a marginal spike predicted closer to release.
🔹 The movie is expected to open with ₹1-2 crore on Day 1, which is subpar for a John Abraham film.
🔹 The film relies heavily on spot bookings and positive word-of-mouth to gain traction over the weekend.

🔻 Chhaava Dominance – Vicky Kaushal’s historical epic Chhaava continues to dominate ticket sales, posing a major challenge.
🔻 Competing Releases – The film will also clash with Kesari Veer and Rise of the Dragon, adding to the pressure.
🔻 John’s Last Film Flop – John Abraham’s last outing, Vedaa, failed to perform at the box office, making The Diplomat’s success even more crucial.

Given its hard-hitting narrative based on true events, The Diplomat still has a chance to recover if it strikes the right chord with audiences. Strong reviews and positive word-of-mouth could boost collections over the Holi weekend.
Will The Diplomat turn things around after a slow start? Stay tuned for box office updates!
