Synopsis

A 'Bollywood' legend comes to London to tread the boards in Shakespeare, but first he must find a leading lady to match his charm and sexual dynamism. He brings with him his (not so) faithful sidekick Ramyou Balti and his spiritual advisor the 'honourable guru Baboo' to help him with the auditions. However Popo Gigi's eloquence and magnetism is such that his rendition of Shakespeare makes the actresses melt in paroxysms of sexual ecstasy, forgetting to act, instead divesting themselves of their clothes. Ramyou's zeal to take over Popo's position leads to a madcap chase through London culminating in a yoga showdown for the title.
