I'm loving life right now." Valentine’s Day 2020: Sonam Kapoor Shares a Kiss With Husband Anand Ahuja in This Adorable Throwback Picture.

Vijay Varma won many fans with his portrayal of the character of Moeen in the film. The actor expressed: "Life has been extremely beautiful and eventful since Gully Boy released in Feb 2019. I am really in the thick of things, creating a lot of stuff. Everything else, apart from work, has taken a back seat. Now, it's been constant work and I am really enjoying the work right now." Rapper Divine, who lent his voice to quite a few tracks in the film became highly sought-after post Gully Boy. His songs "Mere gully mein", "Azaadi" and "Apna time aayega" still continue to dominate the playlists. Laal Singh Chaddha: Aamir Khan Shares a Beautiful New Poster, Wishes Kareena Kapoor Khan On Valentine’s Day 2020 With the Sweetest Message.

It's only upgraded because we're getting the bigger stages, bigger venues and bigger opportunities and I am very thankful to God." On the work front, Sidhhant Chaturvedi will next be seen in Bunty Aur Babli 2 and Shakun Batra's untitled film, where he will feature alongside Deepika Padukone and Ananya Panday.
