Taking to his X handle, he wrote, “Three years of The Night Manager. This scene reflected so much of where I began in life and in my career. I don’t always like revisiting the past, especially the moments when I was misunderstood or judged for the person I was becoming. People sometimes think they can step on your toes, without realizing what it has taken to get where you are. And then in certain moments the real you surfaces shaped by everything you’ve experienced to stand where you do.”

Instead of approaching it with anger or loudness, I chose to express a quieter, more internal truth. Sandeep, the writers and I worked closely on it keeping my own journey and the way I’ve built my personal and professional life in mind while shaping this moment.”
