The film's song, 'Apna Time Ayga' has turned into some sort of youth anthem and people can't stop praising Ranveer for his rapping skills.
While we can't get over the 'Gully Boy' fever, the film has created an impact internationally as well. In a video that surfaced on social media, Hollywood actor Will Smith was seen lauding the film.
“Yo, Ranveer congrats man... I am loving what you’re doing with Gully Boy. For me, old school hip hop here seeing hip hop all over the world like that. I am loving it man congrats Go Get em!.”, the actor said in the viral video. The same video was shared by Alia on her Instagram stories.
The film tells the story of a street rapper from Mumbai, played by Ranveer whereas Alia plays his love interest.
'Gully Boy' has been helmed by Zoya Akhtar and had its world premiere at the Berlin Film Festival in Germany. Zoya, Ranveer and Alia attended the prestigious festival and posed for the shutterbugs.
The film also stars Kalki Koechlin and Vijay Raaz in pivotal parts.
