Miami Vice! that was a neat crime drama/thriller that circled around the drug dealing business. micheal mann is a genius at that kind of genre.😊

Maria Full of Grace is a Colombian Spanish-language film (can watch it with Eng subs) that deals with this issue. Though it is rated R, it is probably one of the most heartbreaking movies I have ever seen. So good and talks about the exploitation of drug mules, who do it for the money.
Ek Hasina Thi could work as a Bollywood example although it has a bit of romance in it.
An amazing movie called Traffic all the way back from 2000 also takes on the issue as a drug czar (enforcement official) has to go after drug kingpins and finds about his daughter's own problem as an addict.
Requiem for a Dream is a wonderful movie not so much about the crime aspect but it talks about four people, who are addicts, and how they look for satisfaction as their lives seem to spiral out of control. (can't recommend this movie enough by the way; it is that good)
A light comedy about drug user is Half Baked, not quite in the genre you are looking for, but it is worth checking out if you are open minded about it. Not to everyone's taste though is my warning.
