It is very much known that sensuous star Sunny will perform an item number for the film. The track will also feature King Khan. The makers of the film decided to rope in Sunny Leone for the dance number because they felt that the leading lady of the film Mahira Khan might not be able to do justice to the same.

Well, who better than Leone when it comes to item numbers. The sad part is, though ‘Raees’ is going to release in Pakistan, it won’t showcase the item number. Yes! Reports state that the film will release in Pakistan but the item number will not be screened.

The reason for the same is that ‘Raees’ has a deep connection with Pakistan in its story line too. SRK plays a Muslim businessman in the film whereas the leading lady of the film is also from Pakistan. The makers have decided not to showcase Sunny Leone’s dance number in Pakistan as it may be risky given their reserved stance on such tracks.

The film is all set to hit the screens in 2017.[/tps_footer]
