There are a number of movies based on the life of a gangster. It is something about a gangster's life that intrigues us. And if he happens to be India’s most wanted criminal, then certainly Bollywood doesn’t spare him without showering tributes in its blockbuster films! We have listed ten films where Dawood Ibrahim is a prominent figure...
