Hindi cinema, or more popularly known as Bollywood is undoubtedly the most favorite and popular commercial pastime of the average Indian worldwide. Hundreds of thousands of people flock movie theaters every Friday and continue towards the end of the week-end till the following week to see the latest release. The 2.5-3hrs worth of celluloid takes the viewer into a world of distance from their real lives – of imagination, fantasy and comfort. What if I was to tell you, that this experience is so much more larger than life when seen live with actual people and on a stage rather than a screen. A Bollywood film is brought to life and experienced as such only at one place – The Kingdom of Dreams in Gurgaon, India.
Besides being home to India’s first Bollywood theatrical extravaganzas in true Broadway style, the Kingdom of Dreams is a genuinely a royal destination.

From chicken tikka masala to Hyderabadi biryani to masala dosa – they have it all!
