When Gully Boy released, it won everyone’s hearts with its inspiring story of a boy rising from his life in gullies to make it big as a rapper. It also motivated a lot of people to pursue their passion. One such person is Rahim (Rohan Mehra) from Crashh. Crashh is an upcoming ZEE5 Original show about four siblings who got separated in childhood. Read on to know about Rahim being the new gully boy.
In the trailer of Crashh, we saw that after the four siblings got separated in childhood and got adopted into different families, they grew up with different backgrounds. One of these siblings is Rahim, who grows up on the streets and aspires to make it big as a dancer.
Like Murad in Gully Boy, Rahim too is a driver. Do you remember the moment when Murad is in the car with his employer’s daughter? The girl is crying and Murad looks at her through the rearview mirror and feels a connection, wanting to comfort her but can’t. This inspires the lyrics of his next song, ‘Doori’.
You can watch the song Doori on ZEE5.

In Crashh, Rahim is the driver of a girl named Alia (Anushka Sen), who actually is his estranged twin sister, and they both don’t know this yet. There is a brief moment in the Crashh teaser, when Rahim is carefully guiding Alia towards the car, giving her the support she needs when she is emotional. While Murad in Gully Boy felt an unknown connection with his employer’s daughter, Rahim in Crashh, actually has a long-forgotten connection with Alia.
Also, do you remember moments of Murad rapping on the streets in Gully Boy with his fellow rappers? Donning the simplest clothes, he rocks the feel of the streets while rapping. Some of those moments, you can see in the Gully Boy songs Mere Gully Mein and Train Song. There is also a track called India 91, where all the real rappers from the streets of Dharavi display their talent. Watch India 91, Mere Gully Mein and Train Song on ZEE5.
When we see Rahim grooving in the streets with his friends in the Crashh trailer, we are definitely reminded of those moments. He also says in the character promo that Gully Boy is his inspiration to make it big as a dancer. Watch this journey of the new Gully Boy, Rahim and if he makes it big as a dancer in Crashh on ZEE5.
