Braveheart icon Mel Gibson touched down in Glasgow for the first time in almost 30 years this week - and his first order of business was of course, some scran!
After arriving at Glasgow Airport via private jet from Budapest, as reported by the Daily Record, Mel headed straight for Mr Singh's curry shop, near Charing Cross in the city.
The Indian establishment is famous for local sightings of celebrities, and many a Rangers player has been spotted in this restaurant - with a VIP area even being introduced for this purpose.

The Australian actor was greeted at the door by owner Satty Singh, as he arrived with plenty of hungry friends in tow.
It has been reported that Mel was seen laughing and hugging a member of staff just outside the restaurant.
Satty confirmed on Saturday evening that Gibson had dined in his restaurant on Friday, but declined to give any further details of the actor’s evening.

It is understood, though, that the booking was made at short notice.
Gibson, who played William Wallace in the hit movie, hasn’t been in Scotland since the film’s premiere was held at Stirling Castle in 1995.
The 66-year-old took part in a live show on Sunday evening in Glasgow at the city’s DoubleTree by Hilton hotel, next to Glasgow Central Station, called an “Experience with Mel Gibson”.
The black-tie dinner costs upwards of £100 a ticket, plus £300 to get a picture with the Hollywood star.
Braveheart grossed more than £200million at the box office and won five Academy Awards, including Best Director, Best Cinematography and Best Picture.
In 2020, before the 25th anniversary of the film’s release, Gibson described it as his toughest-ever movie.
