When general people have a day off from hectic schedules, they like to sleep around or catch a good movie, but
Shah Rukh Khan, being the insomniac actor that he is, chose to spend his holiday in a different manner altogether. Khan, who is the global face of Indian cinema and one of India’s most successful actors, is in Bulgaria these days, shooting for Rohit Shetty’s upcoming movie
Dilwale, with Kajol, Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon.
On his day off, what the actor decided to do was to tease us all with a little peek-a-boo into his next movie
Raees. This has to be the most casual teaser launch of any big-budget movie ever.
Here is what Shah Rukh Khan had to say:
Raees, which stars SRK alongwith
Nawazuddin Siddiqui is directed by
Rahul Dholakia. The movie also marks the
Bollywood debut of Pakistani actress
Mahira Khan, who paved her way into millions of Indians’ hearts with her role of the simpleton Kheerad in the serial
Humsafar, which was telecast on Zindagi channel. Fawad Afzal Khan, her co-star from
Humsafar already stepped into Bollywood last year with Anil Kapoor’s
Khoobsurat, starring Fawad and Sonam Kapoor.
In the teaser of
Raees, we get to enjoy the bad-boy look of Shah Rukh Khan, who once was christened as the ‘King of Romance’.
Shah Rukh stars as Raees, a bootlegger who believes that no work is small and also that work is worship. Contrary to popular beliefs and some fan-made posters that one can find on various websites, the movie does not star
Farhan Akhtar. Instead, he serves as the producer of the movie, along with Ritesh Sidhwani and Gauri Khan. The movie would release on Eid, the same day Salman Khan’s
Sultan would be releasing. Read more about that
