An SRK fan club recently made a fan video of the official Raees trailer and Shah Rukh Khan loved it so much, he suggested they finish the remaining schedule of the film.
In Raees, SRK plays a liquor baron, but in this fan trailer, the protagonist deals in cigarettes.
SRK seemed so impressed with the trailer that he said the film’s director Rahul Dholakia would also agree:
These fan trailers started to surface online after the thundering response to the original trailer of the film. Shah Rukh Khan has never been seen playing a role like this, and clearly social media is loving it.
More recently, we heard that in order to avoid a box office clash, Salman shifted his film Sultan’s release date from Eid 2016 to Diwali 2016 to make way for Raees.
This Mid-Day report confirms the news, stating that the two Khans spoke about it and decided it was best to avoid any clash. Next year is going to be quite the box office riot. Or so we hope.
