Exclusive snaps from the set of an upcoming gangster flick based on Dawood Ibrahim's aide Feroz Kokani.

Titled 'Bombay 90's', the Varun Dhawan-starrer will recreate certain events from the '90s, including the killing of music baron Gulshan Kumar (shown in pics above). That bit has been shot at the exact location of the murder. On August 12, 1997, Kumar was shot dead outside an Andheri temple by two men who fired three bullets at him.

When he tried to crawl to safety, the killers accosted him and pumped 15 more bullets into his body. Mumbai crime branch cops revealed that Kumar had been receiving threats from underworld don Dawood Ibrahim's former aide, Abu Salem, demanding Rs 10 crore.

On refusal, he was shot dead. The identity of the actor playing Kumar is being kept under wraps. In the film, Irrfan will essay the role of top cop Rakesh Maria, who arrested Kokani.
