The Night Manager Features On John le Carre’s Book Cover!

The Night Manager, a book by John le Carre, has a new cover featuring Bollywood actors Anil Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur.

The Night Manager, a book by British-Irish novelist John le Carre that will serve as the basis for the upcoming eponymous streaming series starring Bollywood actors Anil Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur, has a new cover featuring actors Anil Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur.

This is the first time an Indian programme has ever been mentioned on a global bestseller.

Reacting to the news, Anil Kapoor said, “To be featured on the cover of a bestselling novel, this has to be one of the most incredibly memorable moments of my acting career. When you’ve been in the industry for as long as I have, it’s easy to think that you’ve seen everything, but I could not have imagined something like this even in my wildest dreams. So grateful and humbled by this honour!”

The Night Manager has been a very special endeavour for me, according to Aditya Roy Kapur, who plays the series’ title role. I’m a tremendous fan of the book, and we couldn’t be happier that our poster made it onto the cover of the book it was based on! It’s nice to see the team’s efforts being recognised.

The Night Manager also stars Sobhita Dhulipala, Tillotama Shome, Saswata Chatterjee, and Ravi Behl and is steeped in sumptuous drama and breathtaking scenery.

Nick, Stephen and Simon Cornwell, sons of the author, said “Our father John le Carre was hugely excited by the Indian adaptation of ‘The Night Manager’. Even though sadly he did not live to see the finished show, we know he would have been thrilled by this breath-taking adaptation brilliantly helmed by Sandeep Modi and Priyanka Ghose and the brilliant performances of Anil Kapoor, Aditya Roy Kapur, Tillotama Shome, Sobhita Dhulipala and the whole cast.”

They further mentioned, “It’s a gripping and much-loved book and it’s wonderful to see it taking on new life in this way. Moments like these prove how well the story has travelled, and how it has echoed across the globe. And it’s incredibly exciting to see two of Bollywood’s greatest actors, Anil Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur, on the cover of the book.”

The Night Manager, conceived and directed by Sandeep Modi and Priyanka Ghose, and produced by The Ink Factory and Banijay Asia, will be streamable on Disney+ Hotstar starting on February 17.
