Raees is a powerful script; very real and edgy, says Shah Rukh Khan

Shah Rukh Khan interacted with his fans on twitter recently and revealed that the script of Raees is quite powerful and that's one of the major reasons why he came on board for the film.

The actor said, "Actually the script is quite powerful. It is real and edgy, so I liked it."

King Khan, who is currently in Europe shooting for The Ring, also confirmed that he has to learn a bit of Gujarati since Raees is set in the dry state of India. Directed by Rahul Dholakia, Shah Rukh Khan essays the character of a bootlegger in the film.

Raees is confirmed to hit the big screen on 26 January, 2017. The theatrical trailer of the much-anticipated film will be launched in the end of November and the same will be attached to the prints of Dear Zindagi.
