BOMBAY TIMES (January 14, 2022)

It looks like 2022 will be an exciting year packed with shoots and releases for Aditya Roy Kapur. While fans are eager to see the actor in an action avatar in his upcoming film OM, Aditya will also make his foray into the world of OTT with the adaptation of the critically-acclaimed international show, The Night Manager. The handsome actor will headline the drama and play the title character in the series.

While Hrithik Roshan was earlier supposed to play the part, it’s now confirmed that Aditya will be stepping into Tom Hiddleston’s shoes for the Hindi adaptation of the show. His fans feel that he is a perfect fit for the role owing to his suave looks and intensity as a performer.

Talking about Aditya’s prep for the role, a source reveals, “He has been in prep mode for more than a month to get the look and mannerism right. Aditya has been engrossed in multiple readings, look tests and workshops to get into the skin of the character.”

The British mini-series became a hit across the globe and earned several awards at 74th Golden Globe Awards. Along with this series and OM, Aditya also has the remake of the Tamil hit film Thadam in the pipeline this year.
