Here comes a new rapper to give some stiff competition to our desi rappers like Yo Yo Honey Singh, Raftaar and Baadshah. Dashing Ranveer Singh is all set to don the hat of a rapper in Zoya Akhtar 's next tentatively titled Gully Boy. The script of this flick is being crafted by Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti.
Ranveer essays a underdog who rises from the slums of Mumbai to become a rapper with a voice and heart. In his songs, he addresses street life, Dalit oppression, economic inequality and homosexuality. This rapper even takes on corrupt politicians.
A close source said "The film is inspired by real life rappers like Divine and Naezy whose work has ranged from speaking about petty crimes in their respective Mumbai neighbourhoods of Kurla and Andheri to sharing stories about finding a voice and becoming activists. It is an extremely ambitious project and will roll next year,"
