The shooting of Raees began in the second week of April itself but sadly SRK couldn’t attend film’s first day shoot, as the actor was caught up with another project. Finally the wait is over, as the star has started shooting for the must awaited film Raees.

In the Bollywood drama, we will once again get to see SRK playing as an underworld don. The film stars Pakistani actress Mahira Khan, who’ll be playing SRK’s love interest. Raees will mark Mahira‘s debut in Bollywood. The film also features Bollywood’s one of the best actors, Nawazuddin Siddiqui. Raees is set in 80s, the reason why it took quite a lot of time and hard work to create a set brilliant enough to achieve film’s perfect aura.

Well, we are quite excited to see SRK’s avatar in the film!
