Resh Lamba joins The Night Manager adaptation starring Anil Kapoor

Actor Resh Lamba, known for films like City Lights, Bell Bottom, Dybbuk as well as the Netflix web shows Ghoul and She 2, will be next seen in a pivotal role in the Anil Kapoor, Aditya Roy Kapur and Shobhita Dhulipala starrer The Night Manager adaptation titled Captain on Disney+ Hotstar.

Directed by Sandeep Modi, Captain is expected to premiere in 2023 on Disney+ Hotstar. The spy thriller series has been shot extensively in Sri Lanka. It s produced by Banijay Asia.

Opening up about his role in the series, Resh shares, "I am playing one of the key characters in the series. Captain is a project close to my heart. In reverse to my another film Haddi with Nawazuddin, Captain was kind of my cup of tea. I was fully prepared as I was handed over the script months ago, by the direction team."

On with his co-actors Aditya Roy Kapur, Anil Kapoor and others, he adds, "I worked with Aditya, Shobhita, and Mr. Anil Kapoor for the very first time. We had done a few workshops together. But still, I was a bit nervous and alarmed by myself as far as performance is concerned. But my fellow actors were so supportive and full of positivity, that I took advantage of the beautiful surroundings. Working with giants of the craft including Prashant Narayanan in the series, was an absolute honour."
