In Vikas Bahl's Queen, Kangna has been cast as a dreamer with aspirations that her small-town upbringing cannot accommodate. So what does she do? She sets out on a journey that takes her soaring into her aspirations.

Sounds familiar? Kangna's character in Queen is inspired by her own beginnings in a village in Himachal Pradesh.

Says a source, "When the script of Queen was being written, it was Kangna's background as the innocent girl from the hills that was in the writer's mind. He built the screenplay around the basic idea of a girl from a small town moving upwards with her dreams and aspirations. Kangna's life was the reference point."

One hears incidents from Kangna's past experiences have been incorporated into script.

Says a source, "The character is quirky whimsical emotional and volatile like Kangna. The line between the real Kangna and her character is so flimsy that Kangna many times ended up borrowing from her experiences to play the role."

Director Vikas Bahl admits, "In Queen, the audiences will get to see the quintessential Kangna. Under that chic veneer she is a simple girl from the hills who dreamt big and was propelled into the glam-world by her desire to make her parents proud."

Kangna's small-town look in the early part of the film is inspired by Jaya Bhaduri in Hrishikesh Mukherjee's Guddi and Rani Mukerji in Bunty Aur Babli.
