The Warrior Queen of Jhansi (2019) is based on a true story, but it takes creative liberties. The film tells the story of Rani Lakshmibai of Jhansi (1828–1858), one of the most famous leaders of the Indian Rebellion of 1857 against the British East India Company. What’s true: Rani Lakshmibai was real – born Manikarnika Tambe, she became queen of the princely state of Jhansi after marrying Maharaja Gangadhar Rao. After her husband’s death, the British tried to annex Jhansi under the “Doctrine of Lapse,” refusing to recognize her adopted son as heir. In 1857, when the rebellion broke out, Lakshmibai led her forces against the British. She personally fought in battles, earning respect as a warrior queen. She died in combat in 1858 at the age of 29, becoming a legendary symbol of resistance against British colonial rule.
