Controversies don’t seem to end for Shah Rukh Khan’s underworld saga Raees. If the ban on Pakistani artists working in India wasn’t enough, there’s a new tension that the Raees team can’t seem to get out of, a leading entertainment site has stated.
Apparently, a new rule has come into play on the sets of the crime-thriller, which bars the unit hands and others associated with the movie to not leak any information regarding the movie to the press. Not following the rule could lead to penalisation, the entertainment site added.
It’s being said that this move has been taken to avoid further speculation regarding the movie.
A source close to the site added, "Anyone from the team who breaks this clause will face monetary losses as the makers will not pay them their sum."
With so much buzz surrounding the movie, from Pakistani actress Mahira Khan being replaced by an Indian face to the movie’s yet-unknown release date, there’s just too much drama to deal with.
The movie was supposed to release on Eid, but considering Salman Khan’s Sultan, the film’s release date was shifted to January 26, 2017. Unfortunately, that slot has been taken up by Hrithik Roshan’s Kaabil, hence SRK allegedly didn’t want to go head-to-head with a friend. SRK fans are desperately waiting for the movie, whose teaser has already created ripples. Shah Rukh’s bearded, bespectacled, and rugged look is a winner. Moreover, after a series of candy-bopper films, it’s a welcome change to see him in a different role.
The movie, directed by Rahul Dholakia, has been produced by Red Chillies and Excel Entertainment. It also stars Farhan Akhtar and and Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
