BFF25 Christmas Karma

Christmas Karma is a dazzling new musical reimagining of Charles Dickens’ timeless A Christmas Carol. Gurinder Chadha (Bend It Like Beckham) transports the story into a vibrant, multicultural present-day London, fusing tradition with bold modernity. At its heart is Mr. Sood (Kunal Nayyar), a wealthy British-Indian tycoon whose greed and prejudice blind him to the struggles of those around him. On Christmas Eve, three spectral guides arrive—Eva Longoria as the Ghost of Christmas Past, Billy Porter as the exuberant Present, and Boy George as the chilling Future. Together, they unravel Sood’s hidden wounds, confront his callous choices, and reveal the devastating path he is heading toward. Infused with bhangra beats, gospel harmonies, rap interludes and beloved carols, the film’s soundtrack is as eclectic and heartfelt as its message. With a glittering cast that also includes Hugh Bonneville, Charithra Chandran, Pixie Lott, and Danny Dyer, Christmas Karma is a radiant celebration of identity, redemption, and the power of community spirit.
