According to sources, the remake of The Night Manager began filming in Sri Lanka lately, with Aditya Roy Kapur filling Tom Hiddleston’s shoes from the original. Sobhita Dhulipala has joined the cast of The Night Manager as the female protagonist, according to reports.
“The makers were on the lookout for a seasoned actor to play Elizabeth Debicki from the original with utmost conviction and they have locked Sobhita to play the part now. In fact, the actress was in conversations with the team even when Hrithik Roshan was in the conversations to do the series. While the casting of men has taken a turn, the actress continues to spearhead the show as the female lead,” revealed a source close to the development.
There had been rumours that Hrithik Roshan will star in the film, but he had backed out due to scheduling conflicts, now Aditya Roy Kapur has been hired in the same role.
