The film, which is based on the lives of underground rappers Naezy and Divine is doing great in the metro cities. The Ranveer Singh-starrer has been receiving critical acclaim and applause from the audience, critics and the industry.
From Karan Johar to Masaba Gupta, Katrina Kaif and many others have been bowled over by the spellbinding performances of every artiste.
However, the film has been unable to attract the masses and, therefore, the numbers have dipped. Starring Ranveer Singh as the street rapper, Gully Boy stars Alia Bhatt as his love interest bringing to the screen the fresh chemistry of the duo. The film also stars Siddhant Chaturvedi, Vijay Raaz, Vijay Varma and Kalki Koechlin in pivotal roles.
