- The End of an Empire. The Birth of Two Nations. Based on a True Story. IN UK CINEMAS 3RD MARCH 2017
Directed by Gurinder Chadha, VICEROY’S HOUSE tells the true story of the final months of British rule in India.
Viceroy’s House in Delhi was the home of the British rulers of India. After 300 years, that rule was coming to an end. For 6 months in 1947, Lord Mountbatten (played by Hugh Bonneville), great grandson of Queen Victoria, assumed the post of the last Viceroy, charged with handing India back to its people.
The film’s story unfolds within that great House. Upstairs lived Mountbatten together with his wife (Gillian Anderson) and daughter (Lily Travers); downstairs lived their 500 Hindu, Muslim and Sikh servants. As the political elite - Nehru, Jinnah and Gandhi - converged on the House to wrangle over the birth of independent India, conflict erupted. A decision was taken to divide the country and create a new Muslim homeland: Pakistan. It was a decision whose consequences reverberate to this day.
The film is deeply personal to the director Gurinder Chadha, whose own family was caught up in the tragic events that unfolded as British rule came to an end. Her film examines those events through the prism of a marriage - that of Dickie and Edwina Mountbatten - and a romance - that between a young Hindu servant, Jeet (Manish Dayal), and his intended Muslim bride, Aalia (Huma Qureshi). The young lovers find themselves caught up in the seismic end of Empire, in conflict with the Mountbattens and with their own communities, but never ever giving up hope…

Same paternalistic take to flip the story around as if its India's need for independence from the British that caused India's issues today. India was England's biggest cash cow and when the British left they made sure to take everything, that's why it took so long ,not because they cared about the condition of Indian politics? Are you kidding me? Even now why do you think England is among the wealthy countries, because they built their own country on the backs of all those colonized and/or enslaved, and made sure they will not be able to compete with them for centuries. If you look closer England worked pretty hard to keep India poor from turning their garment industry that was popular prior to colonization, to just producing the raw materials to be sent to England where India's garment makers were deskilled and the industry collapsed. Then during WW2 England grated out 2(not sure if million or billion in current day money) direct funds as well as thousands of Sikh soldiers for their war. While Winston Churchill laughed at the letters sent from Bangalore missionaries asking for relief funds for the communities, asking them to let them "die out" and asked the missionaries to go to the more colony friendly areas. I could go on but I think I've made my point. This movie is an extended arm the Bollywood industries eurocentric values asking them to paint the European and Indian relationship in a neutral light, as a more revealing request asking India to favor the continuation of colonialism.
👏👏👏👏
They do mention that in the start of the film when Jeet and his friend are talking they say how Britain's broke coz of the war and how they cant afford to keep India
Yes, the story of modern England isn’t a pretty one. Still, it’s unfair to paint the British out as bloodthirsty and totally uncaring for their Indian subject. In fact, it wasn’t a one-way stream of riches flowing from India into Englishmen’s pockets, there were massive investments into India’s infrastructure (so say the economic historians). It’s often blamed on the British that they didn’t do a thing to solve the endemic famines but that isn’t true either. Even after independence, India wasn’t able to solve this problem until pretty recently.
Yes, the story is practically worn out by now. India could have been a global superpower and yada yada had it not been for the white people. In 1700 India’s economy was clearly better than anything in England (keeping in mind that in 1700, the only real city in England was London, and the country was deeply impoverished). However, according to economic historians, the economies of the Indian states would have become obsolescent by the time of the industrial revolution, and would have in general been outstripped by the flourishing European economies. The real success behind England’s ascendancy was their institutional changes in the 18th century. Looting doesn’t automatically make a country overwhelmingly rich and powerful (the Spanish Empire is a prime example).
Why do you ignore the fact that Indians willingly joined the British army? For people from the warrior castes of society, they made no bones about joining the British army, receiving the Crown’s bounty, and zealously fighting other Indians? You mentioned the Sikhs, and frankly there doesn’t seem to be much bad blood between the Sikhs and the Englishmen. The British held them in high regard. People blame the British for using “divide and conquer” methods, but is it really true that they kept you all apart? Sikhs in historical accounts had contempt for Hindus, and absolutely despised the Muslims from the north-western region of India, and the feeling was evidently mutual. What on earth kind of mentality is this where you hold the Englishmen responsible for every.single.thing that afflicts India? When the British attempted to change India’s culture, the Indians lashed out and revolted, and now they are being blamed for not revolutionizing the country by doing things such as abolishing the caste system or mending cultural boundaries. The narrative is that Indians couldn’t wait to be free of the British, yet there were so, so many collaborators in the Raj.
The point isn’t that the English were angels and the Indians were sheep. You people have so much resentment, and you’ve been free for a long time. What a change of heart from the days of the independence movement. Yes, this is a shitty movie - no matter what perspective you view it from, and that’s really all it is.
@@fritzritchie147 infrastructure made out of indian wealth.... Workers were indian... If britain as u so called were rich by your so called institutional revolution what was britishers doing in india for more dn 200 years .... Ehy they came in india ... To visit temples or to enjoy scenery .... We indian as we call atiti devo bhawa( all guests are compared to god) we greeted them but who took advantage ... U said we indians willingly joined army ... How can a son complete his family duty if a penny cannot be earned.... Our freedom fighter gave their life from 18th century starting form rani laxmibai .... Bhagat singh, rajguru, chandrasekhar azad etc a list that cnt be completed n comment... Freedom was gained at a cost of blood in our country... U know jallianwala massacre just go n study ... U will come to know how n what happened wth us for 200 years.... N u will know how rich we were n how cultural we were...
Oh the East India Company was "investing" in the Indian sub continent?
😂😂😂😂😮😮😮😮😮😮😢😢😢😢😢😢
Awwwwww.. How cute were the Viceroy of India and his mistress!! Heart-melting. I find their cuteness so adorable that I want the slavery back. Please piss on us so we can feel the rain.
next level sarcasm lmao
Lol!
My goodness! Hahaha o bhai🙏
Dickie actually preferred young men...Edwina slept around.
@@444finbar thats true
Its fascinating how a trailer or a movie could change someone's perception with the reality (or true story) about what really happened roughly 70 years ago. World may forget, but India (my Bharat) will not.
calihartley2010 huh sure. I mean you’re just so ignorant that I don’t even feel like wasting my energy on you.
calihartley2010 I am a Pakistani. Half of the people in the comment section are from India and even though we have our differences but one thing is for sure that the British ruined us. Had it not been for the British India wouldn’t have divided. The British knew how to divide and rule and they did it so well that by the time they left we were do indifferent of eachother that there was no other option but to accept the two nation theory. And if learning “English” comes at the cost of our rights being usurped, us being enslaved and our resources being exhausted and manipulated under the watch of a tyranny, we were better off without it.
@@notpobody So very true. The ignorance people display is sad but not surprising. As if learning English by force is so civilized. Typical "White Saviour" nonsense.
@@notpobody absolute true
Based on true stories... just like ''Harry Potter'' !!!! Meh...
This is joke right... Lord Mountbatten and wife fighting for rights of indian people.. WTF..
Chinmay Gangakhedkar
do u have any idea about mountbatten???
Raees993 yes.
Based on a true story,also known as,more fiction than Harry potter! :D
no they don't
Seriously Kashmir is a gift from Mountbatten to India , please go ahead and read history of India first, the name Kashmir derives for Hrishi(Saint) Kashyap , Kashmir was is and will remain integral part of India like any other state.
yup sure British were very kind and polite to Indian and had their best interest in their hearts. what a joke.
awan Awan By your comment ,it seems you are one of the slave in british governance. Get some mind
Pls don’t comment before watching the movie. This movie was directed by the daughter an Indian migrant from Pakistan in 1947. And no the British did not have the best interest for Indians in their hearts. That’s why the partition took place. They did it only for the oil reserve of gulf as mentioned in the movie. Although lord and lady Mountbatten might have. Just watch the movie!
now UK is almost taken by indians !!!!!!!!!!!!!! most of the time i have the impression that i am in fucking india not in UK ! ridiculous !
Cant you recognise sarcasm?
@@KimKim-pp5fn Indians will never forget what the Britishers have done to them... They literally exhausted India and filled their banks
Rewriting history in their favour that's what Europeans do best.
The movie was directed by an Indian
@@RB-ne2yc produced by the British. Do consider that. 😂😂😂😂😂 Its a propaganda film.
ThE ThReE SpiKeS
True....
Since independence, the two nations have probably achieved everything except peace. I remember my paternal grand father who used to live in Amristsar in harmony with people of other religions told me that there was no violence, no hatred, no ill-will among the common people. I remember his eyes were filled with tears, each time he recalled the memories of partition and his living in Amritsar.
I am ignorant but read about this. The people used to respect eachother's religions and suddenly it was no more because of the British. White people, we, my heritage, are/is awful.
And now you have modi who is responsible for spreading hate amongst Hindus and Muslims l,gorrey left us but we never left them we still carried out the mentality,sometimes I think it was good when British were ruling atleast there wasn’t so much hate and corruption
@@London77777 You're an idiot and probably Indian. Most Pakistanis are absolutely happy with Pakistan. Shove your pity and sympathy up your ass.
The fact that people are going to watch this and think he is some sort of hero is so wrong. They also seem to forget that his wife had an affair with Nehru....
@@GuyfromtheWAN but that's actually true. Even Edwina Mountbatten's daughter accepted that.
My grandparents suffered through partition. It was hell.
Only one nation was "born". The other one was centuries old.
millenniums old i suggest
TOP COMMENT Zeeshan Thomas! Bless you!
Zeeshan Thomas comments like urs come in ages, or once in a blue moon perhaps....
"Mother India" was created by the British, before the British, there was no united India. For your information, India means the land of Indus which is Pakistan, the British forced this name on everyone living in the subcontinent (Tamils, Bengalis, and Nepalese). Indus is a river that flows in Pakistan and Kashmir. The area now Pakistan and some Part of western India is geographically India rest were called Indians by the British.
find the maurya dynasty map 265 BCE on wikipedia that was india/bharat/aryavart/hindustan
one word PROPOGANDA.
I was moved by the trailer.....and then I read the comments. Woah.
Lol, they really portrayed Britishers as kind hearted good guys, who thought wellfare of natives 😂😂
Another piece of western propaganda. Kudos!
The producers are clearly trying to capitalize on the success of "Westminster Abbey". Selling colonial nostalgia to British public which is already in a grip of populism and craving for stories about former glory. Even the role of viceroy is being played by the same actor who played Lord Grantham in Westminster Abbey.
👀
Can we please stop this Myth that this is western propaganda, no one is trying to brainwash Brits into thinking the British Empire was awesome, it's a really laughable notion for any one that knows anything about British Media. The media in the UK is so left leaning, especially the BBC, which is the complete opposite of the things you are claiming to be.
This is merely a film ''based'' on Historical events that is just used to entertain people not to educate, I'm sure it will be full of Drama. Films like Braveheart and The patriot do the same thing, they may not be completely historically accurate but they are entertaining. But there's nothing wrong with the Mountbattens fighting for India not being partitioned, it creates depth, I'm not a historical expert on this period so I don't know if it was true but it sure does add to the story.
?
Modulus 885 and Anjali Sharma, it's perfectly clear you don't have the slightest clue what you're talking about. You couldn't even get the name of the show right - it was Downton Abbey. Westminster Abbey is where Prince William married Kate Middleton in 2011. Either you somehow got the two mixed up, or you were thinking of Westminster Palace, where Parliament is located.
jumbovs - As for it being propaganda - one of its producers is of Indian heritage, another is in fact Indian, and the last is an American of mixed Spanish and Japanese ancestry. I'm not really sure quite what their interest would be in selling British propaganda.
This film is no doubt not particularly accurate. But I don't think it's at all intending to take away from the brutal reality of Empire. It's more just adding drama to try and make a more interesting story. It's not very accurate, but then most such films aren't.
Gandhi looks quite built...:)
As a Bangladeshi and a South Asian, I feel disgusted by the fact how the British poisoned our hearts and left us with political instability, and now are trying to win us back with this movie. Sickening. They did not have a pint of humanity for us and always viewed us as subhumans.
Absolutely right
Eh, to be fair, India now is a shithole anway.
Britain should have continued to rule over India after they unified the lands.
Just came here only for AR 🙌😍
Ireland, Israel, India, Hong Kong … ‘Is there a little similarity there? Whoa! I think there is’ Uncle Buck
What Britishers did to India...will never be forgiven by any Indian.
came here for ARR,seems like a propaganda movie!!
Full movie of viceroy house
I don't want to be angry on downtown Abbey actor and I am afraid that this movie makes me angry just by watching trailer. Everyone knows what happened in India but only few wise one know what will happen.
How many of u watching this trailer for AR Rahman's music??
It sounds too similar to Downton Abbey :/

what a shame ...mountbatten and his wife portraying as india's well wisher ......those who divided india ...killed innocent indians ..... protest against this movie .....
TimeTraveller fuck yourself
Akash Pandey tum kyun itna sympathetic ho Bhai Britishers ke taraf
bhai kabhi Factual history padha kro, sirf ncert ya biased historians n scholars ki selective readings padoge toh aise hi galat femiyo me rahoge, it was muslim league and their leader Jinnah who was demanding partition since from 1941 because they were claiming that we represent all muslims in India and our partition demand is all muslim peoples demand (since muslims don't like to live under the other religion peoples majority/dominance) which was denying by congress and when 1946 election was held in which muslim league won 90% of seats of muslim majority constitutencies they become more adhere to their demand of seperate state as their claim of representing entire muslims was seeming soliditary, thereafter riots started to happen and when Mountbatten reached India the suitation was very worst, he tried to convince Jinnah and do his best to mediate between Muslim League and Congress Leaders but fails and at last he has devised a partition Plan. Further Mountbatten as a governor-general of Independent India has helped to intergrate 536 princely state into India who was planning either to accede in Pakistan or to be Independent state. Please refer B.P. Menon Book who has drafted instrument of accession and reached on behalf of Government of India to Princes and Kings of 536 Princely states for signing instrument of accession for integrating their kingdoms/state into India.

Sikhs were supposed to get Punjab as independent nation as British people occupied whole Punjab in 1850 but Nehru and Britishers' bad intentions didn't made it happen.
Utkarsha Palan khalistan leader is in america
PUNJABI STARK excuse me Punjab is also of Muslims and Hindus come on bro
Punjab ain't a small place. It has 100 mill muslims and about 20 mill non muslims other than sikhs. It certainly would have been better for it to be united but not as a deal to some one religious group.

if you want us to believe that brits were helping india/Pakistan during that time, then prove it by handing kohinoor back to us (:
will the kohinoor make india wealthy again? (MIWA?) the answer is no. it wont bring a penny back to the masses. it wont be of any help in the governments hand either, they would have to sell it for the money anyways
@@GuyfromtheWAN no, it wont rtbing money to the masses. but it also wont make UK rich or increase its countries GDP. Its more of a pride and justice issue. rather than economic concern.
don't know how much is this true , its seems quite normal and there is a lot of British people speaking in favor India's freedom , but no cruelty is shown , that's not what it happens right, may be the movie will reveal everything
The birth of only one nation not two. --_--
TMA, wait, bhutan? where did bhutan come from?
Biggest JOKE! I saw the name of the BBC in the list too :(
Featuring Original Soundtrack and Score From AR_RAHMAN
its going to be Shit
Ahmed Yusef K.A yea India's way better off now than when the Brits were around.
ARR Awesome background score ..India get ready for another Oscar..
RIP Om Puri!!
Mr and Mrs. Mountbatten are shown very nice in this movie but history describe them as people of extremely low morals.
Get ready for AR Rahman's next Oscar!
TheElix
He never got one?
Gurinder Chaddhas past record is not great, this subject might be a bit too much for her, I hope I'm wrong because I love movies like this.
O yes how hard it must have been for the poor viceroy and his family!! Kashmir continues to bleed because of their mistake!!
Do you think Indians are ready to rule themselves.
I think we have learned from the Best
What a dialogue. Hats off to The Director
For such Big Hypocrisy
Well how on earth it's birth of two Nations India(Bharat) which has a history of thousands of years and England or Pakistan on the other hand do not have it.
+Satyajeet Thatte today's india was never like that before British, there were Independent Kingdoms thts why its called Indian Subcontinent
India was never a nation before then. It was a subcontinent filled with small states and local empires, not unlike Europe. As India's ancient history derives from those diverse and numerous states, so does Pakistan inherit the history of the Mughal states and, in part, the Sikh empire.
This very much was the birth of India as a nation.
sada asdafa The Indian subcontinent or the subcontinent, also called Indian continent, is a southern region of Asia, mostly situated on the IndianPlate and projecting southwards into theIndian Ocean from the Himalayas.
The Tomars Sat on the throne before Britishers or Mughals
India Was Bharat at that time
The Trailer is promising.. Hope A.R.Rahman did a great job.. Kudos to the team..!
It resembles a bit of Downton Abbey' elegance:) Music is gorgeous!
anothr story to show briteshers as good ppl but thy looted and killed
it remind me the stories tell by my grandmother !!! about partition as their move from pakistan to india
Started watching this movie with great interest. Soon stopped watching. The dashing Louis Mountbatten played by a graceless, unhandsome and almost dowdy actor. Nehru's entrance followed by a phoney dialogue about what took place before the new viceroy's arrival, entirely spurious. And no young Hindu man would in those days have stood and stared openly at a young woman. And no Muslim woman baring her cleavage that way.
Chadda the British, directed to let people of India develop soft corner for Brits. This was a big time Amrutanjan - Masala overDose Movie...😂😂😂
BBC propoganda
Montmartre wife was ducking with nehru and Jinnah, though nehru was her favorite. She presided nehru for the whole india pakistan thing, plagued a major role in it.
Every time these Britishers are gaining sympathy through films , & saying we indians are responsible for making of two nations on religious grounds .........please stop makings these type of movies its gives only bitterness............
The funny thing is that they showed how divided the Indian was but not who divided who created the muslim league in order to weaken the independence movement. God! i m feeling murderous. Like really! Helping India ! U all should be ashamed of yourself for white washing such things. And mostly the director who herself is an Indian or an Indian decent.
I didn't get that how did Alia Noor came back to India? What happened to her father and Asif?
Enlighten yourselves with Shashi Tharoor talk at oxford, as a Pakistani, I might differ with him on various issues, but I concur when he says, "No wonder that the sun never sets on the British Empire, because even God couldn't trust the English in the dark."
Did this film dive at the box office? I’ve literally never heard of it and I’m usually aware of new film releases when they happen. Hmmm.
Lies and more Lies
Aww, this was a nice surprise, arriving at the end of 2019... ;-}
it's not history....what director wants to show to new generation ....face was so crual .....dont try to make change .....
Now atleast the British have realised how much wrong they have done to Indians
Yay, Downton Abbey in India!
wow ansiosa que ya comience para ver a gillian en la pantalla
#indPak betocy nations,never breakthrough
This movie is so tone deaf. The british colonisation of india thrived on their 'divide and rule' policy
How many of you guys know that this movie was composed by AR Rahman 😎
Oh i get it!!!! . Now they are making a hero out of the British.. So that theres a new image of England as a symphatetic country..... Grow up......... Everyone knows how the Indians were treated
Akash Hasting because you learnt these from bollywood, You had no face when india getting divided, so put fuck your mouth shut
Partition47 movie has removed from the RUclips, a movie by Chadda.
Who watched just for AR Rahman
What a movie! How underrated is this?
had India stayed the same with Pakistan and Bangladesh as a part of it, no world Cup( cricket) would ever be lost.
Random Girl Had but India is still with Afghanistan
The trailer looks promising. Hope the film won't disappoint us.
India had higher wages than South Korea when they got independance. Now South Korea has $30,000 a year higher wages than india.
A billion heterogeneous population, with every different different cultures in within same, vs a small homogeneous population with literally no difference ethnicity,
You clown.
just wow :'( Loved this :) proud to be an Indian
we are brothers with one soul to divide us on religious ground is against the will of god is the fact i believe and shall believe till the day my death consumes me
Your wish will come true! India will become INDIA again!
ali kool it wasn't against the will of God
I just saw this for A.R.Rahman

Utter rubbish in the name of truth.
no sympathy for the british and mountbatten
I wanted to know what a viceroy was from the starwars prequels and I found this hidden gem.
is it just me or does anyone thought the music is too much like downton abbey?
I was about to comment the exact same thing
The tune is distinct of Downton Abbey!!
Reminds me of Indian summers.
This is a movie. Not history. I sincerely hoped people didn't see this a true historical drama, the accuracy and content is near damning.
I have been waiting so long to see it .only way is buy the video here in Canada
I only came here for Manish Dayal, he is BEAUTIFUL!
Oooh Britishers r sooo sweet 😂😂😂😂🤣🙇🤦
Gillian Anderson is sensational
Bhagat Singh Zindabad
They came ,destroyed and left.
M here for huma Qureshi..
The best quote is from a member of the household staff to a new staff member about the new viceroy HAVE YOU NEVER SEEN COOLIES IN FINE DRESSES BEFORE. I love it. But the worst of it that evilness of illegal occupation is nothing more than a malignant cancer perpetrated by racist governments like the British as we have seen in Ireland. The one good point of the film is that Jeet and Aalea prove that people of different religions can live in peace.
British historians then said India will disintegrate into pieces. It didnt. India´s secularism and freedom for all religions and languages to thrive in a secular democracy is its success.
You didn’t give us our country back we kicked you out, and we defeated you pigs.
God Bless India, and God Bless Our Brave Hearts.
