'Diplomat' surpasses Rs 25 crore in second weekend

John Abraham's movie "Diplomat" has shown strong performance in its second weekend, with total earnings surpassing Rs 25 crore. The film was released on March 14. It is based on a true story of an Indian girl rescued from Pakistan by a government official. Despite facing tough competition, the film is gaining popularity. After an opening day collection of Rs 4 crore, "Diplomat" made Rs 19.15 crore by the end of its first week. The movie continued to grow over its second weekend, bringing in Rs 2.5 crore on Saturday and Rs 2.75 crore on Sunday. This puts the total collection at Rs 25.65 crore so far. The film is up against Vicky Kaushal's "Chhaava," which is now in its sixth weekend. "Chhaava" earned Rs 4.34 crore on its 38th day and has a total collection of Rs 583.35 crore. Despite this competition, "Diplomat" is more appealing to audiences than another recent release, "Snow White," which has earned only Rs 3.08 crore. The filming numbers show gradual growth since its release, indicating a positive reception among viewers.
