Gangs Of Wasseypur

About this movie

Towards the end of colonial India, Sahid Khan loots the British train, impersonating the legendary Sultana Daku. Shahid becomes a worker at Ramadhir Singh's colliery, only to spur a revenge battle that passes on to generations. At the turn of the decade, Shahid's son, the philandering Sardar Khan vows to get his father's honor back, becoming the most feared man of Wasseypur. Staying true to its real life influences, the film explores this revenge saga through the socio-political dynamic in erstwhile Bihar (North India), in the coal and scrap trade mafia of Wasseypur, through the imprudence of a place obsessed with mainstream "Bollywood" cinema.

Ratings and reviews

This is one serious must watch. The film is amazingly real and the music is so crazy. But it does feel like a godfather rip off..

Starting with a lot of gunfire, this is a total adult film. This shows pre-independence India to modern India, how lives changed after britishers left. Here the real gang war starts with MANOJ B. playing a perfect role. With violence and blood everywhere, this movie suits only for matured adults. This is totally diferent from Bolly movies. Songs, dialogues, scripts are unique and actors too are different. A perfect Mafia movie. Note: Adults 18+ must watch who can tolerate violent and strong scenes.

Any time , Any money this movie woth it all.. I wont say that manoj vajpai did a great job because saying that would mean everyone else was below par... But it is one of those movie where everyone give their best and everyone means everyone specially the director and the story writer (though both are the same people ) Anurag this is your by far the best performance...
