A first of its kind in India (maybe?), ‘Gully Boy’ is about a boy from a gali who wants to be a rap star. Speaking of rap stars, how come rappers in Bollywood are punjabi or they rap in punjabi? Right? Honey, Badshah and the other guys, they rap in punjabi. Remember Panjabi MC?
Rap music, western rap music, has never been something we enjoyed. You all know why, it’s quite evident based on the lyrics. It’s like all they got to rap about is how rich they are, what expensive car they own and how many women they are getting or how many people they have shot.
Anyways, moving on…
Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt star in this Zoya Akhtar directed film, which will be releasing on Valentine’s Day this year but before that it will make its premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival.
The trailer looks good and the story itself sounds interesting, something new. Plus, add Vijay Raaz and Kalki Koechlin to that, ‘Gully Boy’ gets even more interesting. Who can forget Vijay’s epic crow briyani scene from ‘Run’?
Ranveer is probably the only happening hero from this generation of actors, who can do a variety of roles. In this one too, he gets in the character and he becomes the character. Alia is a good actress, she has so much potential. Don’t know why she feels the need to get entangled in PR-matters. It will ruin her if her career does not go well!
Zoya Akhtar has brought something different to the table every time with her films. Can’t wait to see what she has done with ‘Gully Boy’. Whatever the story is, her films are always a nice watch.
Here’s the trailer of ‘Gully Boy’ starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt.
So, what do you think?
