Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt have done it once again when fans and critics can’t stop flooding the internet with applauds and praises for their stupendous performance in the just-released film Gully Boy. Directed by Zoya Akhtar, there is hardly anyone who hasn’t fallen in love with Safeena aka Alia Bhatt or became emotional about Murad aka Ranveer Singh’s journey in the films. As much as the two stars are being appreciated for their performance, supporting actors like Siddhant Chaturvedi has managed to woo the audience equally. Gully Boy released on Thursday i.e. February 14 and earned Rs. 19.40 crores on the opening day.
Going by the reports in Box Office India, the film has said to have earned Rs 18.50 crores on Saturday i.e. on Day 3.

Gully Boy Movie Review:
In Gully Boy, Zoya Akhtar who has directed and co-written the film, has pinched an utmost realistic and hard-hitting social issue of increasing economic gap in the society. The film reminded me of the viral picture of Mumbai that showed how one side of the city has sky-touching multistoreys while the other side is inhabited by the slum-dwellers. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself jerking a tear or two during the song Doori, beautifully penned by Javed Akhtar and voiced by Ranveer Singh himself. A scene where a woman is crying at the backseat of the car Ranveer Singh was driving, the societal gap between them hit us hard with the truth. Wiping other’s tears is a basic human instinct, however, nowadays even that is clouded by the realisation of rich and poor. ‘Tere aansoon pochu itni meri aukaat nahi.’ Sounds bizarre, but its true.
Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt left no stone unturned to promote their film Gully Boy on various platforms. The duo was seen appearing in a number of shows on television. On the other hand, Gully Boy's premiere at Berlin Film Festival 2019 in the first week of February also gave it the desired push. Critics lauded Ranveer and Alia's performance at Berlinale'19 which helped the film rake in good numbers.
