Gully Boy, a film on India's street rap culture, has found a large audience beyond the country too. Starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt, the film is inspired by the gully rappers of Mumbai, particularly rappers Naezy and Divine. So it's not only India that is looking forward to this path-breaking film, but also international audiences who are keen to see what Gully Boy has in store for them. The film premiered at the 2019 Berlin Film Festival and was received to thunderous applause and a packed house.

Here's what Smriti Kiran, Creative Director, MAMI Mumbai Film Festival, who was present at the screening, tweeted, "Packed house with the loudest, most passionate cheers. Berlinale gets a taste of the crazy Indian film fan at the world premiere of Zoya Akhtar's Gully Boy."
