The Night Manager is the Indian adaptation of the British thriller series of the same name, which itself is based on a book by John le Carre, and aired on BBC One in 2016.
The Hindi version is created by Sandeep Modi, and stars Aditya Roy Kapur, Anil Kapoor, Sobhita Dhulipala, Tillotama Shome and Saswata Chatterjee among others. It's available on Disney+ Hotstar.
The show when first released in February this year took the internet by storm. The original six-episode British version was released as a complete series, but the Indian producers decided to split the programme into two parts and space them apart by four months.
