10 years of Queen: “We never thought we were creating history,” says producer Madhu Mantena

Queen, directed by Vikas Bahl, is to women’s empowerment in Hindi cinema what Deewaar was to the anti-establishment cinema. Queen, to a large extent, changed the way we looked at the shero, then known as the heroine. The movie, which starred Kangana Ranaut in the lead, completes 10 years today. Revisiting the film, co-producer Madhu Mantena said that Queen wasn’t designed to be such a historic happening. “We never planned it as such a landmark. Like most memorable films, Queen just happened. Kangana Ranaut’s performance added substantially to the film’s overall appeal. Plus, the film holds together ten years later for its timeless plot.

Indeed, feminism got a feisty fillip in Queen. The film begins with another big fat Punjabi wedding! Before we know it, the narrative takes wings, much like its protagonist Rani played
