Just 12 Lakh More To Become 5th Highest Hindi Grosser Of 2025, Slips Down Due To Sikandar!

John Abraham starrer The Diplomat has concluded three weeks at the Indian box office. Starring John Abraham and Sadia Khateeb, the political thriller has been slow but steady. It has surpassed the Chhaava and Sikandar storms and is still adding footfalls. Check out the day 21 update now!

50% drop in third week

The Eid holidays weren’t much of a happy news for Shivam Nair’s directorial because it was set to clash with Salman Khan’s Sikandar starting March 30, 2025. But it has maintained a decent momentum in its third week, garnering 5.30 crores. It has witnessed a 50% drop from the last week, with earnings of 10.68 crores.

It is to be noted that The Diplomat remained slightly lower than Chhaava during the Eid week. Vicky Kaushal starrer added 7 crores in its 7th week at the Hindi box office. This means John Abraham’s film was only 24% lower.

Take a look at the week-wise box office breakdown of The Diplomat below:

• Week 1: 19.45 crores
• Week 2: 10.68 crores
• Week 3: 5.30 crores

Total: 35.43 crores

The political action thriller will likely conclude its box office run within the 38 crore range. Sunny Deol’s Jaat will be released on April 10, 2025, followed by Kesari Chapter 2 on April 18. There’s only limited time for John Abraham starrer to add moolah before it gets washed out of theatres.
