…you never know who you might be rubbing shoulders with when you next visit.

Actor, TV presenter, film producer… the multi-talented Amitabh Bachchan, also known as “the Shahenshah of Bollywood” or, quite simply, “Big B”, has a plethora of acting awards to show for a lifetime at the pinnacle of Indian cinema. Featuring in nearly 200 Hindi films since his debut in the early 1970s, Amitabh’s glittering career has taken him from Bollywood to Hollywood, acting alongside Tobey Maguire, Leonardo DiCaprio and Carey Mulligan in Baz Luhrman’s 2013 movie The Great Gatsby. With no fewer than four Best Actor gongs from the National Film Awards and fifteen Filmfare Awards to his name, international acclaim bears witness to his status as one of Bollywood’s true greats

Synonymous with culinary invention and a visionary approach to food, it’s little surprise that Heston Blumenthal OBE found a meeting of minds with Asha Bhosle’s innovative perspective on Indian cuisine. With four UK restaurants each boasting three Michelin stars apiece and his flagship Fat Duck being voted the world’s best restaurant in 2005, Heston’s playful, experimental culinary philosophy has attracted worldwide acclaim, with recognition not only from food critics but also academic circles, with honorary degrees from the Universities of Reading, Bristol and London, along with Fellowship of the Royal Society of Chemistry.

Making his lead movie debut in Vamsa Vruksham, a 1980 Teluga film, and taking his first Hindi film lead role in 1983’s Woh Saat Din, Anil Kapoor has gone on to become one of the world’s most recognisable Indian movie stars. Receiving Best Actor accolades from the Filmfare Awards for Virasat in 1997 and Pukar in 2000, he has also won a further four Filmfare Awards and two National Film Awards. Starring with Kiefer Sutherland in the eighth series of US TV action series 24, his breakthrough on the international scene came with Danny Boyle’s acclaimed Slumdog Millionaire in 2008. Famed for insisting on doing his own stunts throughout his career, Anil can justifiably claim to be one of Bollywood’s bona fide action heroes.

Pioneering voice of the UK Asian Underground scene, Jay Sean first rose to prominence with Rishi Rich Project’s “Dance with You”, which peaked at Number 12 in the UK singles chart in 2003. A further two solo Top Ten hits followed in 2006 – “Eyes on You”, which reached Number 6, and “Stolen”, at Number 4. Featuring his distinctive, ground-breaking Bhangra-R&B fusion style, his debut album “Me Against Myself” was first released in 2004, going on to sell a staggering 2,000,000 copies across Asia. Recorded on his own independent label, second album “My Own Way” topped the UK R&B chart in 2008, confirming his status as one of the most important crossover artists of the new millennium.

Acclaimed British-Irish singer songwriter and instrumentalist, Chris De Burgh has achieved global sales in excess of a staggering 45 million albums. Signing his first record contract with A&M Records in 1974, his career started with huge success in continental Europe and South America. Widespread UK recognition and acclaim arrived with his 1982 single “Don’t Pay the Ferryman”, with follow-up album “Man on the Line” charting at 11 in the UK. However, it was his 1986 ballad “Lady in Red” that immortalised De Burgh as an artist, reaching Number 1 in the UK – and 3 in the US charts. The accompanying album “Into the Light” reached Number 2 in the UK, and a very respectable 25 in the US. Following the hit Christmas re-release of “A Spaceman came Travelling”, his 1988 “Flying Colours” album entered the UK charts at Number 1. One of the UK’s greatest global musical exports, his music remains an enduring favourite around the world to this day.

Known now as much for her philanthropism as her considerable acting and musical achievements, Priyanka Chopra is UNICEF’s global Goodwill Ambassador for Child Rights. Promoting various causes, from the environment and women’s rights to health and education, she has successfully reached out from her roots as an actress to become one of the world’s most influential women. Born in 1982, Priyanka burst onto the global consciousness in 2000, winning Miss World. A National Film Award and five Filmfare Awards (including 2008s Fashion, for which she won Best Actress) marked her out as a blockbusting Bollywood A-lister, scoring a series of box office hits in the slipstream of her 2003 debut The Hero. Going on to set up her own film production company, Purple Pebble Pictures, Priyanka enjoyed critical and commercial acclaim for Ventilator, a Marathi comedy drama, in 2016.

The Baadshah of Bollywood, the King of Bollywood, King Khan or, quite simply, SRK, Shahrukh Khan is one of Indian cinema’s most talked-about and best-loved stars. From villains and romantic leads to comedies, his versatility has seen him star in some 80 Bollywood feature films, winning no fewer than fourteen prestigious Filmfare Awards along the way. Established as one of the world’s most successful movie stars, he branched out into film production through his company Red Chillies Entertainment, with Newsweek naming him in their list of the world’s 50 most powerful people in 2008. His philanthropic work in healthcare and disaster relief was recognised with a Padma Shri (one of the highest civilian honours) from the Indian Government and a Legion d’Honneur from the French government. In 2011, he was awarded UNESCO’s Pyramide con Marni for his work in supporting children’s education.

Born in 1986, Amir Khan is one of our greatest boxers of all time. Britain’s only boxer at Athens 2004, he went on to become Team GB’s youngest ever boxing Olympic medallist, winning a silver medal aged just 17. One Commonwealth lightweight title and five years later, he was one of Britain’s youngest world champions of all time, winning the WBA title, which he held until 2012. More recently, Khan held the WBC Silver welterweight title from 2014-2016, before challenging for the world middleweight title in 2016. Outside of boxing, Amir supports mixed martial arts and is a noted philanthropist, dedicating much time and work to projects to create jobs and prosperity in his home town, Bolton.
