Zoya Akhtar surely knows to depict the modern lifestyle through her films. Till date, all her ventures are successful and mostly youth-centric. The talented filmmaker is now making a film, ‘ Gully Boy ’, which is based on the lives of two underground rappers (Divine and Naezy) of the Mumbai city. Zoya has been working on the script for more than a year now and the lyrics of the film are being written by her father, Javed Akhtar . Javed feels that the movie will turn out as her daughter's best work. Speaking to a leading daily, the lyricist said, "Gully Boy is going to be an exceptional film. I can say, this is going to be Zoya's best film till date. I am intrigued by it."
Javed Akhtar is in the industry for around 5 decades now and has written scripts for some of the most successful films in the Indian cinema. Expressing about his work, Javed said, "As a screenwriter, if someone has a story I like, I will write the screenplay and dialogues. If the person doesn't have a story, I will offer a story too. If the film has any vulgarity, obscenity or crude situation, where I am expected to write a song that may imply something else, I won't take it up."
‘ Gully Boy ’ features Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt in the lead roles and will hit the screens at the end of 2018.
