Born to Be King

Born to Be King follows a directionless young British Asian man who travels to India seeking a fresh start. Adrift in London, he discovers an unexpected calling in local politics, where he becomes entangled in the complexities of grassroots activism and community leadership. The film explores themes of identity, belonging, and self-discovery as he navigates between two worlds—the expectations of his heritage and the pull of his adopted home. Through political engagement, he uncovers a sense of purpose that had eluded him in Britain. Born to Be King is a character-driven drama that examines how personal transformation can emerge from cultural reconnection and meaningful civic involvement.
