Hollywood star Tom Hiddleston video called Bollywood actor Aditya Roy Kapur after watching his performance in the Hindi adaptation of the series 'The Night Manager'. Sharing his excitement, Aditya took to Instagram to share that he received a video call from Tom.

"The OG Night Manager watched our show yesterday! He had some kind words to say. Bas aur kya," he captioned the image. The picture shows a shot of Tom's face while Aditya took a screenshot of their chat.

The Disney+ Hotstar show is an official adaptation of the English series, which featured Tom in the lead. The Indian adaptation also stars Anil Kapoor and Sobhita Dhulipala in lead roles, and is also based on John le Carre's novel ‘The Night Manager’. It is produced by The Ink Factory and Banijay Asia.

Talking about the project, Aditya had earlier said, "When there's revenge and betrayal in the mix, high voltage drama is inevitable. The Night Manager pulls this off on the back of fascinatingly complex characters. As they say, still waters run deep, and my character Shaan very much embodies that phrase. One can never tell what's on his mind but you know the wheels are furiously turning, taking the plot from one unexpected turn to another. It's been a great experience working with some of the finest talent of the Indian film industry, assembled by the dynamic team at Disney Hotstar."

Meanwhile, Aditya also has Anurag Basu's ‘Metro...In Dino’ with Sara Ali Khan in the pipeline.
