Queen is a gem in the crown of contemporary cinema. It is perhaps the most delightful surprise you will see at the cinemas right now. There is a dialogue in the film where Rani Mehra (Kangana Ranaut) tells a bad joke to her Russian friend in Hindi. He has no idea what in the world she was talking about, but Rani decides to euphorically laugh at her own joke. She adds: “Mera sense of humor bohot achcha hai, aapko dhire dhire pata chalega”.
If I have to tell you what Queen is, it would be exactly this line of dialogue. Queen ka sense of humor bohot achcha hai, aapko dhire dhire pata chalega. It will first make you chuckle, then you’d be laughing at that character doing something funny at the edge of the screen and gradually you will find yourself laughing out loud at almost everything. Gradually, you will end up caring for Rani; you will end up enjoying each little moment in the film. I was left with a wide smile on my face when the film ended. I think I smiled for the entirety of the last half hour. It refused to wear off. This is such a happy film; you would have to pray hard to the gods of pessimism to make you dislike it.
