In the shameless pursuit of something we’ve never tried before, KFC is screening its first Bollywood feature. About time too, you might say...

BBCi sums it up with: "Everything about this film works: the inventive story-telling; the uplifting song sequences set amidst a theatrical landscape of circus clowns and dancing elephants; the sparkling comedy complemented by moments of tenderness and endearing innocence. It's rare to see a film that bounces between humour and sentiment so seamlessly. And it is rarer still to see characters become etched in the memory so enduringly that audiences become almost protective of them... Lage Raho Munnabhai is the ultimate in feel-good cinema that leaves you feeling like anything is possible."
