In a recent video shared on the Instagram handle of Tiger Baby Films, Zoya Akhtar explained why there was no blue color in the movie Gully Boy. She said, “We decided to take blue out as a color from art. The blue tarpaulin that's so famous in Bombay, which is really kind of an eyesore. Ah, we took it out.”
Editor Nitin Baid further shared, “And that is what we worked around a lot through the course of the film because that was something… we had erased blue from every place in the film.”
Baid added it was very strictly followed and even if the color was there, it was just a faint blue shade.
The musical drama featured Ranveer Singh as street rapper Murad, Alia Bhatt as Safeena, and Siddhant Chaturvedi as MC Sher. The cast also included Vijay Raaz, Vijay Varma, Amruta Subhash, Kalki Koechlin, and more. Gully Boy premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival in 2019 and received positive reviews.
A recent report in Filmfare suggested that a sequel to Gully Boy was in the works with a new cast. A source told the portal that Arjun Varain Singh, the director of Tiger Baby Films and Excel Entertainment’s Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, has been roped in for the project. Vicky Kaushal and Ananya Panday are reportedly in talks for the lead roles. However, there is no official confirmation regarding this sequel.
