Disney Plus Hotstar’s Indian adaptation of British show ‘The Night Manager‘ has confirmed its release date on the streaming giant. The espionage drama series will premiere on Disney Plus Hotstar on 17th February. The Indian version of ‘The Night Manager’ stars Aditya Roy Kapur and Anil Kapoor in the lead roles.
Aditya Roy Kapur plays the character of a night manager at a posh hotel, who helps bring down an international arms dealer. Tom Hiddleston had essayed the role in the original. Anil Kapoor essays the role of the primary antagonist, a wily arms dealer, with connections in high places. The character was played by Hugh Laurie in the original British version of ‘The Night Manager’.
Sobhita Dhulipala, Tillotama Shome and Bengali star Saswata Chatterjee play other pivotal roles in Disney Plus Hotstar’s ‘The Night Manager’. Banijay Asia are producers on the show, slated to stream on Disney Plus Hotstar. Sandeep Modi, who’s earlier directed the hit Disney Plus Hotstar series ‘Aarya’, has directed the Indian remake of ‘The Night Manager’.
The original series traversed across the globe, from Cairo to Switzerland, and Turkey to England. It remains to be seen whether the Indian remake will be a globetrotter like the original. The British original ‘The Night Manager’ is an adaptation of prolific spy novels writer John Le Carre’s 1993 work. It was directed by filmmaker Susanne Bier (Bird Box).
Disney Plus Hotstar’s ‘The Night Manager’ premieres on 17th February, 2023. Have a look at the trailer of the series –
