To celebrate the release of the new Twentieth Century Fox film The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, we have a fabulous goody bag to give-away featuring great gifts and a special signed poster, which has been personally autographed by Dev Patel, Tena Desae and British stars Celia Imrie and Tom Wilkinson.
From the director of Shakespeare in Love, John Madden, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel promises a heady mix of comedy and emotion, showing India at its beautiful best. The film features Bollywood’s latest crush and top model Tena Desae romancing Slumdog Millionaire star and BAFTA nominee Dev Patel in a feel-good comedy boasting the cream of British talent. They are joined by veteran Indian actress Lillete Dubey (Monsoon Wedding, Housefull, Kal Ho Naa Ho), who plays the mother of Dev Patel’s character Sonny.
For a disparate group of English pensioners (Judi Dench, Bill Nighy, Maggie Smith, Tom Wilkinson, Penelope Wilton, Celia Imrie and Ronald Pickup), retirement takes an unconventional turn when they abandon their homeland, enticed by advertisements for The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, a seemingly luxurious sanctuary for “the elderly and beautiful” in Jaipur, India. On arrival, they discover that the hotel falls somewhat short of the romantic idyll promised in the brochure, but they are gradually won over by the ever-optimistic young entrepreneurial manager Sonny (Dev Patel), and tentatively embark on a new adventure, finding that life can begin again when you let go of the past.
