Broken-hearted Sorayah Butt never thought she'd go back home. Ajmal Butt is thrilled his estranged daughter is coming back. The Press call him the "Curry King" because of his restaurant empire but his flagship restaurant on the Curry Mile totters on the brink of bankruptcy. Ajmal's joy turns to rage when he learns his daughter has returned to attend a wedding. Not just any wedding, but the wedding of his rival's daughter. Sorayah's arrival opens a pandora's box. Her past was neatly locked away, but now long-kept secrets are unearthed, and she discovers truths about herself she wishes had stayed buried. Ajmal faces his own demons as he searches in vain for an heir to the business, but he's made too many mistakes and he lurches closer and closer to catastrophe. Flickering from the scorching streets of Punjab to the neon-lit landscape of Manchester's curry district The Curry Mile evokes the cut-throat restaurant trade to reveal what lies beneath the bright lights and deftly explores how families are made (or unmade) in the crossfire.
