Fans of South Asian cinema will have plenty to enjoy at Vue Preston over the coming weeks.
The King of Bollywood Shah Rukh Khan is showing now in the Indian Hindi-language film, Pathaan.
Khan’s first film in four years, it sees the Bollywood heavyweight star in the lead role as a spy taking on a terrorist group whose next target is India.
The high-octane spy thriller is expected to be a huge success for South Asian film, with the official trailer racking up 57 million views in just a fortnight.
Coming up next, from Friday 10 February, is Shehzada, which tells the story of Bantu, hated by his father for as long as he can remember, who finds out as an adult he was switched at birth.
Directed by Rohit Dhawan, Shehzada is an official remake of the Telugu film Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo and stars Kartik Aaryan in the lead role.

Last, but not least, after almost a decade, director Luv Ranjan is returning to the rom-com genre with Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar.
Coming to screens from Friday 10 March, the film follows Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor, who fall head over heels in love – only to find out they’re from two very different walks of life.
