The Indian adaptation of British show The Night Manager has officially been announced with its first poster out now. The show, which stars Aditya Roy Kapur and Anil Kapoor, is a spy thriller and borrows its plot from the BBC and AMC joint production, which aired in 2016. The Indian version will stream on Disney+ Hotstar hopefully later this year.
The streaming service shared a motion poster of the show on social media on Monday afternoon. It shows large close-ups of the two leads, followed a still of them walking from a private jet at an airport. The caption reads, “Duniya ke sabse dangerous arms dealer ko rokne ke liye there is only one weapon - ek hotel ka night manager (There is only one weapon to capture the world’s most dangerous arms dealer – the night manager of a hotel).”

The original British series starred Tom Hiddleston as a night manager, who infiltrates an arms dealer’s (Hugh Laurie) organization as a police mole. It was critically acclaimed with particular praise for the leads.
Talking about playing a dangerous arms dealer on the show, Anil Kapoor said in a statement, "I have always loved working on differentiated content and characters. The first time I read the script, I just fell in love with the character of Shelly Rungta. 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.”
Aditya Roy Kapur, who plays the titular night manager on the show, added, “I have always wanted to perform a multi-layered character in a series with a complex narrative arc, and 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.”
The Night Manager, directed by Sandeep Modi, also stars Sobhita Dhulipala, Tillotama Shome, Saswata Chatterjee, and Ravi Behl. Co-directed by Priyanka Ghosh, the series is produced by The Ink Factory and Banijay Asia.
