When I first saw the trailer I was not impressed at all despite the fact that I saw the trailer after everyone started raving about it. It was awkward unique and didn't quite showcase the awesomeness that this movie.

So the movie starts with a quintessential Desi setting of a wedding! A busy dad, decorations, excited aunties, flowers, cute kid but what was unique and what sets out that this movie is going to be good, is the depth given to Rani's character (Kangana Ranaut)

Then after a clichéd song featuring the fat Indian wedding *Minor spoiler alert*

We learn that Rani's fiancé, Vijay (Rajkummar Rao) wants to cancel the marriage.

So far so simple, so typical and yet unique. But then the chicken crosses the road! Instead of going on with her usual life, Rani decides to continue with her honeymoon. This moment is where the film exits the Mainstream cinema and enters into Parallel cinema.

That goes the premise. What follows is a blend of unique and rich characters which are detailed in a subtle way. From the bold Vijaylaxmi to charming Alexander to sweet Taka to everyone, every character gives contributions to the excellence of this movie.

Kudos to Vikas Bahl for realising such deep characters, all of whom have depth, but never seem forced. In fact! The characters are so good that one can even challenge David O' Russel!

As for the acting goes. KANGANA RANAUT! She nails the role of Rani. Making her comeback to peak form after Fashion. The extent to which Kangana nails this role one cannot simply imagine this movie with any other actress. Lisa Haydon too nails the role of Vijayalakshmi. Given the character she handles it well enough, never letting our mind think that she was just there to show skin. Although, the skin too was a bonus!

Mom papa se Goa mai mili Boom Boom! Mai agayi!

Rajkummar Rao has proved his worth time and time again. Queen is no exception. Only one can so that he got somewhat shadowed by the 2 strong female characters. As for the rest of the supporting cast goes Canadea Marco, the Italian restaurant owner shines brighter than the company.

Also, the stripper subplot was a delight, and I say this not for its eye-candy but its bittersweet reality.

When parents receive this money, its only money.

Seriously! Jobs like these shall not be a taboo nor shall they be seen as highly immoral acts. They are simply the jobs that are less good. Many of them don't do it out of will, they are either used or forced. If only we can use our eyes to look into other's eyes and not just their boobs can we see the real beauty and the pain of it.

Verdict: All in all Queen along with English Vinglish (The inferior offering) are eye openers for the patriarchal society that we live in today. One of the rare movies, which I see and say that I couldn't have done it better, and trust me! That means that I consider it to be one of the best films to come out of India in recent years.
