Carol Services at All Souls

This year, All Souls is spreading ‘Great Joy for All the People’. Join the tens of thousands who flock-by-night to Langham Place for a carol service this season and cosy up in the packed pews to enjoy angelic solos, nativity readings, and time to consider the Good News of Christmas.

Head along on select dates before Christmas (13, 14, 18, 20 and 21 December) as you belt out the nation’s most loved carols with a live choir and orchestra, bathe in the bold splashes of colour, and feast on towering trays of mince pies and overflowing hot festive punch — all free of charge!

Shivaji Movies ^hot^ May 2026

Years passed. Shivaji became a shadow that the Sultanates could not catch. He was a master of Ganimi Kawa —guerrilla warfare. But his greatest cinematic battle was not on an open field.

"Look at those hills, my son," Jijabai said, pointing to the distant Mughal outposts and the decaying forts of the Adilshahi Sultanate. "They think we are farmers. They think the land is theirs because they have elephants and cannons." shivaji movies

As the sun sets, the credits roll. But the story doesn't end. Because in every fort, every school, and every film about Shivaji, the message is the same: Justice. Courage. Self-rule. Years passed

The camera pans over the faces of his people: farmers, shepherds, blacksmiths, and women warriors of the Maval infantry. He looks at Tanaji, who had famously roared, "Gad aala pan sinh gela" (The fort is won, but the lion is lost) during the battle of Sinhagad. He looks at his mother, Jijabai, who had forged this empire with discipline. But his greatest cinematic battle was not on an open field

The wind howled across the rugged spine of the Western Ghats. On the battlements of Raigad, a young boy named Shivaji watched his mother, Jijabai, not with the softness of a child, but with the steel of a future king.
