I think he was Iranian, not Indian.
Indian
That’s according to the movie
And shots they showed of his parents
Are Indian no question

But I never knew,
I always thought he was white

The movie is wrong, he was of Parsi descent, he was born in Zanzibar, Tanzania.

The movie got a few things wrong.

In the movie it said he was diagnosed with AIDS in 1985 but he was diagnosed in 1987.

There was supposed to be a Freddie Mercury biopic made starring Sacha Baron Cohen, which was going to take a more darker real look at his life, but the band members wanted it to be more about them and keeping that positive look of Queen.

Sounded like it wouldve been an awesome movie and have kind of been holding off watching this knowing for years that Sacha Baron Cohen movie was deep in the works.

Yes I read about him being born in Zanzibar. I also read about Napoleon being on the Island of Corsica and he spoke with a non french accent.
