Streamer Disney+ Hotstar on Monday launched the official poster of Aditya Roy Kapoor and Anil Kapoor’s OTT debut series The Night Manager. Dubbed as a high-octane thriller wrapped in lavish drama and picturesque sights, the series is the Hindi language adaptation of John le Carre’s novel by the same title.

The show is created and directed by Sandeep Modi and produced by The Ink Factory and Banijay Asia. Priyanka Ghosh is co-director of the project, which will premiere on Disney+ Hotstar this year. Roy Kapur said he has been looking for a multi-layered character in a series with a complex narrative arc.
“When the platform approached me to play the title role in The Night Manager, I knew this was just the one I’d been looking for. My character Shaan is the kind of person who can effortlessly make people believe whatever he wants them to, and that perfectly mirrors what we as actors strive to achieve with our craft. I’m glad that the Disney+ Hotstar team and Sandeep Modi gave me this opportunity to play such an exciting character, and I can’t wait to bring him to audiences in India and around the world,” the 37-year-old actor said in a statement.
When Anil Kapoor read the script of the series, he fell in love with the character of Shelly Rungta. The actor said: “Shelly is a powerful man, a philanthropist and a perfect balance of wit and evil with imperceptible menace just like the story of the show — a perfect blend of entertainment and great storytelling. I thoroughly enjoyed working with some of the finest from the industry and one of the leading OTT platforms — Disney+ Hotstar and eagerly waiting to see audience’s reaction to the show.”
The Night Manager will also feature Sobhita Dhulipala, Tillotama Shome, Saswata Chatterjee and Ravi Behl in pivotal roles.
