The Aashiqui 2 star will essay the titular character played by Tom Hiddleston in the original series. Hiddleston, who picked up a Golden Globe for his role, played Jonathan Pine, a former British soldier who works as the night manager of a luxury hotel in Cairo. His life moves on predictably till he is recruited by an officer with the UK's Foreign and Commonwealth Office to infiltrate the inner circles of a shady arms dealer.

It will feature the actor in a different avatar altogether."
