Zoya Akhtar’s Gully Boy which saw Ranveer Singh play an aspiring rapper will now get a release in Japan. The rap-musical, also starring Alia Bhatt, will hit the screens in Japan next month. 

An elated Ranveer said that it is a proud moment for team for everyone who has worked in the film. “I am very happy, very proud that Gully Boy is releasing in Japan. I have never been to Japan but only learnt, heard and seen the most wonderful things about the land of the rising sun. I hope to come there someday,” he said in a statement. 

Gully boy which was both critically and commercially successful, has its world premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival (BIFF). Last month, Akshay Kumar’s Kesari had a release in Japan.
