Directed by Shivam Nair, “The Diplomat” hits the theatres on Friday.
“An interesting conversation with @TheJohnAbraham on his new movie The Diplomat. As also on football, the North East and our respective worlds,” Jaishankar posted on X.
The minister also shared a couple of photos of the meeting, in which the two could be holding a jersey bearing the number 9 and the name ‘Jaishankar’.
“Was a pleasure and honour to meet a man who I so intently follow. We discussed diplomacy, the North East and football among many other things. Truly an honour Sir! @DrSJaishankar @NEUtdFC #TheDiplomat,” Abraham wrote while sharing Jaishankar’s post on X.
According to Shivam Nair, best known for helming projects such as “Naam Shabana” and “Special Ops”, “The Diplomat” is a fascinating story in which Abraham plays an interesting role.
Inspired by real events, the film stars Abraham as a diplomat, who steps in to rescue an Indian woman named Uzma played by Sadia Khateeb from Pakistan.
