Jaideep Ahlawat has carved a niche for himself with his ability to slip effortlessly into diverse characters, winning praise for the depth he brings to every performance.

O'Romeo is taking over the box office and critics by storm. The film, directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, is based on a chapter from S. Hussain Zaidi and Jane Borges' book Mafia Queens of Mumbai. The film's plot takes inspiration from the story of Ashraf (Sapna Didi), who sought to kill Dawood Ibrahim, and her association with gangster Hussain Ustara, played by Shahid Kapoor. As the crime drama catches steam, it is the perfect time to go re-watch (or watch, if you haven't) Bollywood films that are based on real-life gangsters.
