The period drama, which will have its world premiere at the Berlin Film Festival, has been adapted from one of the chapters of noted author Hussain Zaidi's book, Mafia Queens of Mumbai. It features Alia as Gangubai, one of the most powerful, loved and respected madams from Kamathipura during the 1960s. Ajay Devgn also plays a pivotal role in the movie.

Gangubai Kathiawadi also stars Vijay Raaz, Indira Tiwari and Seema Pahwa. The film marks Sanjay Leela Bhansali's first collaboration with Alia. This project also marks Bhansali Productions collaboration with Jayantilal Gada's Pen India Limited and the reunion of Ajay and Bhansali after the 1999 iconic film Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam.
