My favorite film with Ben Kingsley is easily Gandhi, made in 1982 and directed by Richard Attenborough.

If you haven't seen this movie, do yourself a favor and go rent it. Ben Kingsley was perfect as Gandhi; even resembling him a bit. His Indian accent was wonderful, and portrayed flawlessly. The film was actually shot in India, and the scenery is spectacular.

A truly moving biopic, Gandhi received a total of eight awards at the 1983 Academy Awards, including:

Best Actor in a Leading Role
Best Art Direction/Set Direction
Best Cinematography
Best Costume Design
Best Director
Best Film Editing
Best Picture
Best Writing

All of which were deserved.

Gandhi serves as both entertainment, and an educational biopic that is nearly life-altering. You should definitely see it.
