Ranveer Singh is straight outta 8 Mile in Gully Boy teaser

Ranveer Singh is all set to show off his rapping skills in Gully Boy.

The film, directed by Zoya Akhtar, is based on the hip hop community in Mumbai.

Gully Boy will get its trailer within the week but before that we have a teaser that serves as a trailer announcement.

The video features a track from the movie titled 'Asli Hip Hop', which is performed by Ranveer Singh. The visuals show us Alia Bhatt and Kalki Koechlin in their characters and Singh's avatar maneuvering himself through life as a rapper in Mumbai.

We're getting extreme 8 Mile vibes from the trailer announcement, with many scenes resembling the flick and Ranveer Singh being very Eminem. There's also some intense drama in the film and we're waiting to find out what's it all about.

Gully Boy will get its trailer on January 9, so we shall get a few answers then. Overall, the tone of the film does look interesting and we're curious to know more.
