Gully boy amc3/9/2023 ![]() ![]() They have been able to keep it clandestine. Murad is in a relationship with Safeena (Alia Bhatt) since they were in school. We come to know that his father has brought in another wife, a much younger woman, much to his mother's chagrin. Murad/ Gully Boy (Ranveer Singh) is the son of a driver (Vijay Raaz) studying in college. And the songs feel as if they were moulded by the circumstances faced by the hero and not created by professionals in a posh studio. His love story too is gritty and not the saccharine sweet stuff you see on screen. The claustrophobic bylanes of Dharavi look genuine, the hardships faced by the lead character are everyday hardships of the millions living in slums, in chawls. Written by Reema Kagti and Zoya Akhtar and directed by Zoya Akhtar, the film is as real as they come. So Gully Boy, inspired by the lives of underground rappers Naezy and Divine, comes as a pleasant surprise. The songs more often than not are mere window dressing. But ironically, we don't make genuine musicals. Thanks to the plethora of songs and music, most our films can be said to be musicals.
