Films of the crime genre

Crime thrillers have been an important part of Bollywood for ages. From Gangs of Wasseypur to Black Friday, Bollywood has produced several successful crime dramas down the years. Now digital media platforms, too, have started making some crime thriller shows, which have been widely accepted by the audience and the critics alike.

In 2019, Amazon Prime Video had released Mirzapur, which follows the story of a lawless city of Mirzapur and the string of events followed between two families. The show is a perfect example of what people put at stake to gain more power and money. Another film that has gained immense momentum in the crime genre is Anurag Kashyap's Gangs of Wasseypur.  

The film is the only Indian film to have received a spot in a popular magazine’s top 100 films of the century, which follows the spine-chilling story of a clash between Sultan and Shahid Khan, which leads to the expulsion of Khan from Wasseypur and ignites a deadly blood feud spanning three generations. Directed by Anurag Kashyap, Gangs of Wasseypur stars Manoj Bajpayee, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Huma Qureshi and Richa Chadha in the leading roles.
