'Victoria & Abdul' examines how a young Indian Muslim came to play a central role at the heart of the empire and his influence over Queen Victoria at a time when independence movements in the sub-continent were growing in force. Yet, at its heart, it is a tender love story between an ordinary Indian and his elderly queen.
