The Night Manager

Sameer lodaya.

The series is well made on trapping

The series is remake of the English version in the same title..all thanks to Sandeep the director and the entire team for making Hindi version with great stars so that viewers like us can watch some good stuff

The making is at par excellence and gives you a feeling as if you are watching some Hollywood series..the location are outclass and the overall look of the series is very stylish..the pace of the series goes very smooth and keeps you engaged where you know what is going to happen but you are still eager to see

Both Anil and Aditya looked very young and fresh and acted in more of expressions and less words with supportive females sohbita and tillotama who gave their best

The worst element the makers did by releasing it in two parts it kills all the enthusiasm which was created and as you get engrossed the 1st part ends and they show you treasure of part 2.

After a long time I found good entertainment mixed with good role plays by the actors especially Anil Kapoor and Sidharth Roy Kapur. Story is intriguing. They should have released atleast 6 episode in first part. Anil Kapoor puts life in his character. That spy agency lady role is too much dramatic it should have been avoided, it somewhat takes away the genuinity of the show. Now eagerly waiting for the second part. Hope it does not end in a conventional way. Senior actors like Anil Kapoor are a charm to watch, hope they continue in future also. I am also impressed by the acting potential of Sidharth.

I love the story and all of the performances done by the actors. I respect the director and writer of this movie for mentioning the Myanmar crisis. I recently noticed Bollywood movies started using our country's names in their movies. Sometimes in a good way and sometimes in a bad way.

It's kind of strange that they used a lot of misinformation about our country in this serious. I personally request them to do some research before giving any information about a country.

Last year I watched a movie performance by akshay kumar . In the movie, they talked about our war with Pakistan in a perspective that is totally wrong.

The Night Manager has all the ingredients for a hit espionage adaptation of a hit novel and an original series. Yet it falls short of the level of the original.

The cast is good with some promising talent. Anil Kapoor as a baddie is a fun prospect to watch. He is cut for such roles. Aditya Roy Kapoor has the charm and persona of a spy. Sobhita Dhulipala plays the damsel in distress to the tee. Saswata Chatterjee is equally clever and conniving. Tilotima Shome is a bright spark. She plays a spy boss inimitably.

The series has good production value considering the way it is mounted by the makers. The writing by Sridhar Raghavan is intriguing. The storytelling by Sandeep Modi needs more urgency and astuteness I feel. Really wish it soars in the second part. Would be such a waste otherwise.

The story is great. It never gets boring. There is always something to expect.

This series I feel was more focused on the details of the story than on action sequences. I hope that is not the reason people go and check this series.

I didn't know this was a remake when I watched it so I ended up enjoying it. This kind of also raises some questions on some moral things.

// Spoiler from here Overall this involves a hotel manager slowly getting involved in reporting an illegal arms trade. He slowly gets information but later also agreed to work with the government.

// Spoiler till here

Some of the moments are well written. I found them quite clever.

Overall must see in theatres.😂 Just kidding.
