Manoj Baypayee walks out of this much awaited project
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,June 03 2021]
Superstar Hritik Roshan is gearing up to star in his first web show. The project will be a remake of the British miniseries 'The Night Manager' which starred Tom Hiddleston in the lead role. The project had another brilliant actor for the role of main antagonist but apparantly he has decided to walk out. Manoj Baypayee was roped in to play the villain who was portrayed by High Laurie in the original.
The main reason behind Manoj leaving the show is pandemic. The second wave of the Covid-19 affected the ongoing film projects adversely. Two of Manoj Baypayee's films were delayed and now his priority is to finish his pending projects as soon as he can. This meant that he won't be able to allot dates to 'The Night Manager' remake and hence decided to walk out.
The 2016 release, 'The Night Manager' was massively loved by fans. Hrithik Roshan even turned down a starring role in 'Vikram Vedha' remake to work on this project.
