Vikas Bahl, director of Queen, is pleased as punch, as his
flick centred on Kangana Ranaut has whipped up ample curiosity on the social
media circuit. Although the movie illumines Kangana in the role of the protagonist
Rani, there is another actress who acts as a catalyst in the transformation of
the screen character. Lisa Haydon, model and actress who green-lighted her
career with Aisha, enacts Vijaylakshmi in Queen. Vikas Bahl says, "The
character of Vijaylakshmi in Queen is that of a very free-spirited girl. I met
Lisa and I found her to be such an interesting person, that I re-worked the
character of Vijaylakshmi. I tweaked the character to suit Lisa."
He adds significantly, "I thought that Lisa was way more free-spirited than what I could conceive as a person. So I was willing to re-look at that character and do it in such a manner that Lisa would do an even better job of it, than what I had conceived." Queen details the life and times of a small-town Indian girl, who decides to go on her honeymoon alone, owing to a twist of Destiny! Queen premiered at the Busan Film Festival in October 2013 and won rave reviews too.
Presented by Viacom 18 Motion Pictures, Queen is a Phantom Production. The Kangana Ranaut-starrer is directed by Vikas Bahl and produced by Viacom18 Motion Pictures, Vikramaditya Motwane & Anurag Kashyap. Queen, which also stars Rajkummar Rao and Lisa Haydon, is slated to hit the screens, come March 7, 2014.Your reaction
