The Zoya Akhtar directorial had its world premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival on 9 February and has been receiving praise for sensitively shining a light on issues such as class, minorities and inequality. Ranveer Singh, who plays the lead in the film, and newcomer Siddhant Chaturvedi have especially been lauded for their performances.

Loosely based on the lives of homegrown rappers Divine and Naezy, Gully Boy tells the story of Murad, an aspiring rapper from Mumbai’s slums who dreams of making it big and escaping his working class existence. It has been produced by Excel Entertainment and Tiger Baby Productions.
