Sonny Kapoor (Patel) is about to get married, but with the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel almost fully booked, he starts to concentrate on his dream of opening a second hotel to take on the overflow of guests, but is faced with problems from the get go.
This wasn’t quite as good as the first film, but fans of the first will still find this very enjoyable,. There is a lot more Sonny in this, which is good and bad: good because we get to know his character better as he was something of a caricature in the first film, and bad because sometimes it is the caricature that adds mystery to a likeable character. The rest of the cast do a great job with the material, including the addition of Richard Gere and Tamsin Grieg, but don’t expect quite as many laughs or as much drama as the first film.
