Loved O'Romeo? These Bollywood films based on real-life gangsters are must-watch

Loved O'Romeo? These Bollywood films based on real-life gangsters are must-watch

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.
