2017 film directed by Kavi Raz
The Black Prince historical drama film directed by Kavi Raz and featuring the acting debut of Satinder Sartaaj . It tells the story of Duleep Singh , the last Maharajah of the Sikh Empire and the Punjab area, and his relationship with Queen Victoria .
The story revolves around the young prince as he attempts both to regain his throne and reconcile with the two cultures of his Indian birth and British education.
After the death of his father, Maharajah Ranjit Singh , the previous ruler of the Sikh empire, Maharaja Duleep Singh is placed on the throne at the age of five. In 1849, when Punjab is annexed to British India , the young prince is removed from the throne and separated from his mother. He is put under the guardianship of British surgeon Dr. John Login . At the age of 15, Duleep Singh is sent to England where he meets Queen Victoria. A relationship between the two develops.
Duleep Singh is eventually able to reestablish contact with his mother and as a result begins to reconnect with the culture of his birth. Duleep attempts to return to India to reclaim his kingdom, but is continually thwarted by British colonial politics.
