Gully Boy

A Muslim boy from a ghetto in Bombay yearns for a future in the music industry in a life-affirming Hindi drama directed by Zoya Akhtar. Murad Sheikh (Ranveer Singh) is 22-years-old and seemingly destined for the security of a desk job to appease his parents, who have worked hard to provide him with an education. As part of the disenfranchised youth in the minority Muslim population, Murad has been conditioned to know his place and stay there but he feels rap music is his calling. Using his lyrics to echo socio-economic and deeply personal concerns, Murad inadvertently transcends his class in pursuit of his dream.
