Zoya Akhtar directorial “Gully Boy” is a film about Indian street rappers and their struggles. In the 2 minutes 45 second long official trailer launched today, lead actors Alia and Ranveer rebel against everyone around them to achieve their dreams. The film celebrates the journey of a boy of Mumbai streets as he goes on to become one of India’s most notable rappers.
The trailer shows Ranveer Singh as the man who raps to express himself. Living a less privileged life, he is told over and over again that one cannot rise above the economic and social status they are born in but he believes ‘apna time aayega’ (my time will come).
Alia on the screen plays Ranveer’s love interest who supports him throughout. It looks like she is studying to be a doctor. Kalki Koechlin also plays a significant role in the film.
