Kangana Ranaut starrer Queen released seven years ago on this date. The Bollywood actress shared that she signed the film thinking this will never be released, and signed it for money.

Kangana tweeted: "After almost a decade long struggle I was told I am too good an actor to be a Bollywood leading lady, curly hair and vulnerable voice made it worse, I signed Queen thinking this will never release, signed it for money with that money I went to film school in Newyork (cont)".

She added: "In Newyork, I studied screenwriting, directed a small film in California at the age of 24, which gave me a breakthrough in Hollywood, after seeing my work a big agency hired me as a director, I buried all my acting ambitions, did not have the courage to return to India (cont)."

Kangana said that the 2014 film, directed by Vikas Bahl changed her life.

"Bought a small house in the outskirts of LA in Calabasas, just when I left everything, Queen released, changed my life and Indian Cinema forever marked the Birth of a new leading lady and woman centric parallel cinema #7yearsofqueen," she said.

She also said that Queen was not a film that she could take full credits for.

"Queen is not just my film, it was an explosion of everything I ever deserved that was kept away from me for 10 long years, everything came all at ones, it was overwhelming, I truly believe what is ours no one can take away hang in their you will get your due #7yearsofqueen," she concluded.

Queen revolved around the story of a diffident girl named Rani Mehra, a diffident who embarks on her honeymoon to Paris and Amsterdam by herself after her fiance calls off their wedding.
