While Hrithik Roshan has been long roped in to front the Indian adaptation of the popular show, `The Night Manager`, the principal casting is taking longer than expected as actors’ dates have been reshuffled due to the pandemic. With Roshan stepping into the shoes of Tom Hiddleston’s Jonathan Pine, the makers were in talks with Manoj Bajpayee to play Richard Roper, an arms dealer who masquerades as a business magnate. The role was essayed by Hugh Laurie in the 2016 BBC One original.
