This brand new musical celebrating the colourful, exuberant cultural history of India receives its West End premiere at the London Palladium.

Described as not just a musical but a theatrical experience never seen before outside a Bollywood movie, Beyond Bollywood captures all the colour, energy and exuberance of Bollywood – one of the world’s largest and most successful commercial film industries – and promises to bring all the fire, heat and desire of classic Indian folk dance and music to Theatreland.

Choreographed and directed by choreographer and former pop star Rajeev Goswami, the show tells the story of Shaily Shergill who leaves her home in Munich to journey to India and fulfil her mother’s dying wish.

Beyond Bollywood features lyrics by Bollywood’s Irfan Siddiqui and original music by writing duo Salim-Sulaiman, who have scored numerous Bollywood hits.
