Gully Boy

""You didn't review Ranveer's previous flick Simmba??"" asked a friend whose a silent observer...like many in my Facebook Account ""Because that was directed by Rohit Shitty whom I just loath"" replied I... Yes I call him Shitty as his flicks are not my class really..Actually it's the Director that am more passionate about rather then the Stars....And Zoya Akhtar is one such director whose flicks works as a food for my poetic soul..just like Bhansali!! So Gully Boy as the name suggest is a story which is musically yet magnificently told!!...about a Street Boy fighting for survival and how he fulfills his far fetched dreams to become the Rapper and winning the contest....Here Zoya juxtaposes the life of the rich and the poor of Bombay beautifully!!...which is actually based on a true life of Street Rappers(Divine and Naezy).... and yes Bombay never looked so appealing!! The forte of Zoya's magnificent way of telling a story is Cinematography ofcourse...but also those poetry filled silent moments which we witnessed in Zindaghi Na Milegi Dobara or in Dil Dhadkne Do....which am truly mad about...made me gasp in delight here as well... The soul of the flick lies in the lyrics...a true essence that strike the right chords of ur sentiments....which were beautifully penned by Javed Akhtar Sahaab...also by Divine and Naezy!! For Ranveer and Alia less said the better...they are among the best lot... the brigade of young talents that we have today!! For now and this flick...Ranveer is a true Rapper also where he sang along with Divine and Naezy(on whose life this flick is actually based on)... Though Kalki has a small role but work as a breather in the flick...she adds that glamour and chutzpah ..looked stunning and took my breath away...just like she always does(yes there could be Jacky and Padukone..but Kalki is Kalki for me) Crux??... So with some awesome performances along with divine music and brilliant Starcast...this movie shouldn't be missed for sure!! Hats off to Zoya and Ranveer Ten on Ten!!
