Upon release, Gangs of Wasseypur – Part 1 received critical acclaim, and won a number of awards. The film was theatrically released on 22 June 2012, but was banned in Kuwait and Qatar for violent content. It was filmed in Varanasi, Bihar, and Chunar, with these settings inspiring the film's soundtrack, which consists mainly of Indian folk.
It was also screened at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2013. Gangs of Wasseypur was screened in its entirety at the 2012 Cannes Directors' Fortnight, marking one of the only Hindi-language films to achieve this. Part 1 stars an ensemble cast, featuring Manoj Bajpayee, Richa Chadda, Reema Sen, Piyush Mishra, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Vineet Kumar Singh, Pankaj Tripathi, Huma Qureshi, Anurita Jha and Tigmanshu Dhulia.Īlthough both parts were shot as a single film measuring a total of 319 minutes, no Indian theatre would screen a five-hour film, so it was divided into two parts. It is the first installment of the Gangs of Wasseypur series, centered on the coal mafia of Dhanbad, and the underlying power struggles, politics and vengeance between three crime families from 1941 to the mid-1990s. Gangs of Wasseypur – Part 1 is a 2012 Indian Hindi-language crime film directed by Anurag Kashyap, and written by Kashyap and Zeishan Quadri.
