S MAGAZINE ★ 4 AUGUST 2019 29 Born to run Award-winning director Gurinder Chadha is turning the spotlight on Bruce Springsteen for her new movie Words by Pauline McLeod

urinder Chadha loved her Saturday job in Harrods. In fact, the teenager became so adept at selling men’s G hats she can tell anyone the size of their head, a skill, admittedly, for which she has little use these days. The salesgirl who would go on to change a mind-set about the beautiful game in Bend It Like Beckham, popped up in whichever department the world’s poshest store was short-staffed. So if she hadn’t wound up in rock’n’roll vinyl one weekend, it is possible Ms Chadha might never have made Blinded By The Light, a film which also happens to be the title of a Bruce Springsteen song. “I’d heard of him back then but I wasn’t a rocker. I was into disco music. In my eyes, Springsteen came into the old-blokes-into-rock kind of category,” she admits. But when her 17-year-old self saw his Born To Run cover on a Harrods display, she was so struck by its image – “because it was very rare to see black and white artists together” – she bought the album, thought it fantastic and played it a lot. Her real Springsteen epiphany, though, came at Wembley Stadium, where she went with university pal Dave Cummings and his friend, Paul Whitehouse, both of whom would go on to write TV’s The Fast Show. “It was the best gig I’d ever been to and still is in many ways: the energy, the passion… It was phenomenal,” she confesses. “I became a massive fan.” The Boss was equally blinded by Gurinder’s chutzpah when she later ambushed him at the London premiere of documentary The Promise to pitch a film idea. He’d stopped to tell writer Sarfraz Manzoor he thought his memoir,
