A few hours ago Shah Rukh Khan unveiled two posters of his upcoming film Raees and even before we could stop raving about it, the makers bowled us over again by releasing the teaser trailer of the much-awaited film.
SRK will play a bootlegger in the movie and the teaser starts with the clinking sound of empty alcohol bottles, rolling on the ground. Shah Rukh's grim voice travels throughout the trailer in which you get a fair idea that he is quite unapologetic about his illegal business as his mother has taught him 'koi bhi dhanda chota nahi hota aur dhande se badha koi dharam nahi hota' and thus his 'dhanda' becomes his religion.
Shah Rukh is seen in a never-seen-before avatar in the teaser and looks quite menacing as he walks down a burning street with a club in his hand, while his goons are seen beating some people. The trailer shows that despite being a don, he is quite popular among the aam janta, who cheer for him as he goes out in public to greet them with folded hands. The posters boasted of SRK’s character’s winning traits – ‘Baniye Ka Dimag Aur Miyanbhai Ki Daring’ and the King Khan has reiterated the same in the teaser as well.
This teaser we say is quite intriguing and Salman, whose Sultan is clashing with Raees on Eid next year, will have some tough competition to face.
Directed by Rahul Dholakia, Raees, which is set against the backdrop of Prohibition in Gujarat, has been produced by Ritesh Sidhwani, Gauri Khan and Farhan Akhtar and also stars Pakistani actress Mahira Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
