No, the lead singer of Queen, Freddie Mercury, was not Indian. He was born in Zanzibar, a Tanzanian archipelago, and later moved to the United Kingdom.

While Freddie Mercury's heritage is Parsi, a Zoroastrian religious group originating in Persia (now Iran), he is not of Indian descent. The Parsi community has a long history in India, but Freddie Mercury's family lineage traces back to Persia.

Freddie Mercury's unique vocal range, stage presence, and musical contributions have made him a global icon, transcending any cultural boundaries. His legacy continues to inspire musicians and fans worldwide.
