Bollywood actor Ali Fazal, who plays one of the title roles
in Stephen Frears' directorial "Victoria and Abdul" with veteran
actor Judi Dench, believes racism has always existed and it will continue to
exist in future too. But he tells he is one of the lucky few to have never
experienced it.
"I don't think it is (racism) out of the picture. There
has always been racism and there will (always) be, unfortunately," the
actor said in an interview.
Ali says his film is coming out at the right time and he is
extremely excited about its release. The movie revolves around the inexplicable
bond between Queen Victoria (Dench) and her clerk Abdul Karim (Fazal).
The film is based on a book of same name by Shrabani Basu
that chronicles the real-life relationship between Queen Victoria and Abdul
Karim -- a relationship viewed with suspicion by members of the royal
household.
