Gully Boy is directed by Zoya Akhtar and the film tracks the journey of Murad, played by Ranveer Singh. Murad is a budding street rapper from the slums of Mumbai and later becomes a big name in the hip-hop industry. Alia Bhatt plays a feisty medical student, who is in love with Ranveer's character Murad.
Gully Boy is inspired by the lives and work of rappers Divine and Naezy, who have contributed immensely to the film's music.
Over the weekend, superstar Amitabh Bachchan sent out hand-written notes to Alia Bhatt, Ranveer Singh and other Gully Boy actors like Vijay Varma and Siddhant Chaturvedi.
Gully Boy is currently competing at the box office with Ajay Devgn-led Total Dhamaal, which has earned over Rs 70 crore in four days.
