Genèse:
Résumé: Twinkle, and his bride Jussi, leave their Punjabi village for London where they dream the streets are paved with gold. However, the reality is very different, and they struggle to get along on Twinkle’s earnings as a bus driver in Southall. But Twinkle soon turns into a local celebrity, singing his bhangra songs at local weddings , and he and his musical partner Rocky are snapped up by the unscrupulous producer, Mrs Shindie, who realises that bhangra means big bucks. However, Twinkle’s fortunes fade: he is ripped off by Mrs Shindie and a loutish DJ; Rocky dies; and illegal sampling and downloads kill his record sales. Finally Twinkle hits the bottle and alienates his long suffering wife - but a last minute change of fortunes gives the show a happy ending.
