Hindi Movie Review

Queen


Bollywood still has hopes of redemption if such movies are shot. Queen was like a breath of fresh air. The main reason being the well thought out script. Honeymooning alone in Paris and Amsterdam, befriending a smart, thoughtful waitress (Lisa Haydon), sharing a room with three men from different countries – that’s certainly not what a typical middle class Delhi girl does. But in the movie it all falls into place. So where’s the hero??? Would you believe it? There’s no hero to carry the lady into the sunset!! The egotistic Delhi boy (Rajkummar Rao) is beautifully put in place while our heroine waltzes into the sunrise. Kudos to Kangana Ranaut for her make up less face and natural dramatic talent and cheers to the director Vikas Bahl and producers Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane. Queen certainly deserves her crown!!!
