    The cast and crew walked the red carpet with members of the British royal family earlier this week. Prince Charles and Duchess of Cornwall Camilla joined Oscar-nominated director John Madden and members of the cast who included Dame Judi Dench, Dubey, Dame Maggie Smith and Desai.

     

    The film, being released on 6 March, is a sequel to the 2012 film The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and also stars Richard Gere, Bill Nighy, Celia Imrie, Penelope Wilton and Tamsin Greig.
