Ranveer Singh supports first time producer Zoya Akhtar for Gully Boy

Mumbai: Ranveer Singh didn’t step back from taking a chance with a first time producer, Zoya Akhtar with the movie 'Gully Boy'. This is the second film whereby Ranveer has decided to tie his fate with a new producer.

When Ranveer signed up for Vikramaditya Motwane’s critically acclaimed love story ‘Lootera’ under the Phantom Films banner, he was the first star to become a leading man for this production house. With his decision to act in Gully Boy for Tiger Baby Productions, he has once again shown support for a debutant producer. Zoya’s reputation as a successful filmmaker also adds tremendous value to this project.

In his decision to act in films with new producers, Ranveer has shown extensive support for solid talent, instead of established brands and names. According to the actor, taking a chance with innovative producers is a refreshing change, which is a brilliant example for other movie stars to follow.

With ‘Gully Boy,’ a film that is supposed to be chronicling the journey of desi rappers Naezy and Divine, two super talented sensations that have emerged from Mumbai’s poor, crowded neighbourhoods, Ranveer will pour himself into the character.
