Johnny Depp continued to celebrate his defamation case victory against Amber Heard by hiring out an entire Indian restaurant for a slap-up £50,000 meal in Birmingham. The Hollywood megastar dined with Jeff Beck, 77, and his entourage at Varanasi in Broad Street on Sunday night.
Owner Mohammed Hussain, 38, said the 58-year-old enjoyed the food so much he ordered the same again, took it back to his hotel room and left a "large tip". The Pirates of the Caribbean star spent around three hours at the venue, which can cater for 400 people, mingling and talking to staff members.
Mr Hussain, who has run the posh restaurant for the past six years, said: "It was all very much out of the blue and last minute. We had a call, which I thought was a prank at first, but then his security arrived and wanted to book out the entire place.
