Gurinder Chaddha has finished scripting a musical West End stage version of her most well-known film, Bend It Like Beckham.u00a0 <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2012/jun/bend-it-like-beckham-origin.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 317px; " /> A still from Bend It Like Bekham &ldquo;In a way, Bend It Like Beckham Musical is a homage to the Hindi movies I grew up watching, where all the emotions were expressed through song and music. We even have a song where the father expresses his emotions about his parental duty to his daughter. If that isn&rsquo;t KL Saigal coming to West End, what is?&rdquo; says Gurinder. The music composer of the stage adaptation is Howard Goodall and the lyricist is Charles Hart, who wrote the lyrics of The Phantom Of The Opera. Reveals Gurinder, &ldquo;Bally Sagoo will add a British Indian flavour. The musical is turning into a kind of Fiddler On The Roof set in Southall with a father lamenting the choices of his daughters and a mother insisting on tradition. When my husband Paul Berges and I were writing the book for the musical, we found it very helpful to refer to Fiddler as it is in essence a very Indian musical.&rdquo; Says Gurinder, &ldquo;We will be going live on our website and I will be asking anyone who thinks she can sing and dance and play Jess on the West nd stage to upload their audition to the website.&rdquo;u00a0
