Trade analysts are speculating that the Ranveer Singh-Alia Bhatt-starrer will witness a substantial growth in the metros during the weekend. The film collected Rs 19.40 crore on the first day and became Alia Bhatt’s highest ever opening film. Gully Boy is also Ranveer Singh’s second highest opener, after Rohit Shetty’s action blockbuster Simmba.
The movie, which also features Kalki Koechlin, Vijay Raaz and Siddhant Chaturvedi apart from Ranveer and Alia, revolves around Murad who rises from the slums of Mumbai to become a rapper. It also sheds light on India’s underground hip-hop culture. Gully Boy has been produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar’s Excel Entertainment.
