A fabulous cast includes Jena Pandya (Mamma Mia!) as Simran and Ashley Day (Dynasty) as Rog, with Irvine Iqbal (The Father and the Assassin) as Baldev, Kara Lane (The Addams Family) as Minky, Harveen Mann-Neary (Bend It Like Beckham) as Lajjo, Amonik Melaco (Sleeping Beauty) as Ben, Millie O’Connell (Six The Musical) as Cookie, Ankur Sabharwal (Snakes and Ladders) as Ajit, Kinshuk Sen (Come Fall in Love – The DDLJ Musical) as Kuljit, Russell Wilcox (Exit The King) as Rog Sr.

This sweeping love story about a young British Indian woman who spends a summer of freedom and fun in Europe before her arranged marriage, is a joyous, romantic show that pits heritage against heart.

Cultures collide in this major new stage musical, featuring 18 all-new songs from acclaimed Indian composers Vishal & Sheykhar, and the writer of hit stage musicals Mean Girls and Legally Blonde.

Come Fall in Love played at the Manchester Opera House from 29 May to 21 June 2025. There’s no current news about a West End transfer or further tour for Come Fall in Love, but check back for details or sign-up for alerts.

Come Fall in Love is the story of Simran, a young British Indian woman whose future is set: an arranged marriage back in India to a family friend. But when she convinces her very strict dad that she should spend a summer of freedom and fun in Europe, she falls in love with Roger, a British charmer with a heart of gold, and her careful, logical plans go out the window. Can she be true to both her heritage and her heart? Can carefree Rog win over her traditional father?
