John Abraham on his role in The Diplomat
In an interview with India Today, John Abraham revealed how he prepped to play the role of Indian diplomat, JP Singh. "I spent a lot of time studying JP Singh, where he comes from and his body language. He is a very tough guy, but he is always smiling. He is quite guarded as well and knows how to circumvent an answer," said John.
The actor further spoke about the makers didn't paint 'Pakistanis as evil' in the political thriller. "Full credit to the writer Ritesh Shah and to my director Shivam Nair, who have not painted Pakistanis as evil. They are just people, and people can be both good and bad. To show yourself as better, you don't have to show someone else as bad," he told the publication.
