Eighteen-year-old Jamal Malik is having an amazing winning streak on the Indian version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? He's only one correct answer away from the top cash prize when the show’s producers question how someone who grew up in the Mumbai slums can be doing so well, when more educated and wealthier contestants have failed. Is Jamal cheating or is his success pure luck? Flashbacks to Jamal's life ultimately answer these questions.
To enhance your experience, we will serve a selection of delicious Indian snacks before the screening, allowing you to indulge in the flavours that complement this cinematic experience.
