Bandit Queen background

Bandit Queen

Phoolan Devi, a notorious bandit queen, spent 11 years in prison from 1983 to 1994.

The film chronicles the life of Phoolan Devi, a notorious bandit queen who spent 11 years in prison before her 1994 release. During her five-year trial, she became a legendary figure in India, likened to a modern-day Robin Hood. However, the media's idealized portrayal of her as a stunning beauty with blue eyes and dark hair contrasted with her average Indian appearance, making it challenging for the movie to balance fact and fiction. Phoolan Devi later entered politics before being assassinated in 2001.
