Rapper Vivian Fernandes, who is known by his stage name Divine and whose life is one of the inspirations for Zoya Akhtar's Gully Boy, feels good to see that cinema is recognizing hip-hop music. Divine, who played a heavy number in Anurag Kashyap's Mukkebaaz, feels glad to work with the filmmaker and thanks cinema for appreciating hip-hop music.

"'Mukkebazz' is a very good film and Anurag Kashyap has been one of my favourites for a while. I'm quite glad that my first foray into Bollywood was with this film. "I don't think there is a bigger platform in India in terms of reach than cinema so it's great that real Hip-Hop is being recognised by the industry," the rapper, who performed at the OnePlus Community Meet Up in Mumbai on Saturday, told IANS.
