  • Abdul accompanies Queen Victoria to Florence Italy where she gifts him a locket with her picture. She also demands Abdul go home to India immediately and bring her back with him.
    Film Synopsis:
    The extraordinary true story of an unexpected friendship in the later years of Queen Victoria's (Academy Award® winner Judi Dench) remarkable rule. When Abdul Karim (Ali Fazal), a young clerk, travels from India to participate in the Queen's Golden Jubilee, he is surprised to find favor with the Queen herself. As the Queen questions the constrictions of her long-held position, the two forge an unlikely and devoted alliance with a loyalty to one another that her household and inner circle all attempt to destroy. As the friendship deepens, the Queen begins to see a changing world through new eyes and joyfully reclaims her humanity.

    I'm so glad to know that Queen Victoria had some happiness in her final years of life. Abdul was like a son to her. As a mother I can totally appreciate their relationship.

    The profound love and respect they both shared for each other. Like Mother and Son. The truth is, she saw Abdul as her son and Bertie and the court disliked this and jealousy was the key factor in this beautiful tale.
    As Muslims we strongly follow the teachings of the Quran, to which the Queen understood and had taken time to learn.
    Muslims believe the path to paradise are found at your Mother's feet. This is why Abdul kissed the Queen's feet.
    R.I.P now Abdul and Victoria 😔

      This movie exaggerated the relationship with Abdul Karim and Victoria. Victoria was very fond of him and gave him privileges her other servants didn't get but she would never have regarded him as her son over Bertie.

    Can understand Prince Albert's frustration though, heir to the throne yet gets less facilities then the Queen's favourite. The fact he'll be one day King must have been all that really kept him going. Karim was probably in practise more powerful then Albert also as its my understanding Queen Victoria did not let Albert do many official duties of importance.

      The real Victoria was very likeable to non-English folk who were dehumanized by the English. She had seen it all her life. First with Albert, then with a Scotsman, and finally with Abdul. She saw it after the first war of Indian independence. She even saw it with herself to a degree. At the hands of her prime ministers.

Then she saw it with Albert, who was once again seen as a foriegner, until Victoria herself had to title him. Then she saw it with the Anglo-Sikh war - how her ministers and officials dehumanized the Sikhs. She saw it after the first war of Indian independence, when she officially put a stop to it by issuing a proclamation to allow freedom of race and religion. Then she saw it with her Scot friend John Brown. And finally she saw it with her Munshi, Abdul Karim. So yeah. Victoria had seen how the English dehumanize non-English folk all her life and she was against it.

      The Queen only loved Albert. When she died, they wore her in her wedding dress so that she can be with him again (according to her wish). But, however Queen Victoria found comfort in talking to servants after his death according to historian and often reward them. Prio to Abbdul there was an English servant named Brown I believe was giving the same special treatment for his company. Queen Victoria wasn't a very good Queen in the beginning to mid of her reign mainly because she was too young but later on improved a lot on all spectrums, I remember watching a documentary and the historian said later on in her life she was criticized for breaking protocol of a Queen - she bowed to the people a lot especially when visiting colonies, you can actually look up a rare footage of Queen Victoria bowing to people on UA-cam.
