It would have been interesting to see Farhan Akhtar and Shahrukh Khan, the director-actor duo of Don, coming together on big screen for the first time in Raees, but we hear that Farhan has opted out of the movie.
Even though Raees is Farhan Akhtar's own production, he can't help but dissociate himself from the movie because of date issues. Reportedly, Raees will go on the floors around mid-2014, and at that time Farhan is supposed to shoot for Bejoy Nambiar's film. Since his dates are clashing, he has walked out of 'Raees'. Also being the producer of the film he can't keep Shahrukh Khan waiting.
If SRK plays a bootlegger in the film, Farhan was supposed to essay the role of a cop. Now, the makers have to start a fresh hunt for the second lead role. Who do you think will suit the role of a cop opposite Shahrukh?
Raees, produced under the banner of Excel Entertainment, is going to be made on a big scale. For the movie, Shahrukh will get a new makeover. It's learnt that a team of Hollywood make-up artistes will be flown down for the superstar, who reportedly plays a Gujarati don in the movie. Farhan and his team want to try out different looks for SRK, but the final call will be of the actor and director.
Shahrukh Khan's look in 'Raees' will get a Hollywood touch
The movie will also have Sonam Kapoor romancing Shahrukh Khan. The makers considered a number of actresses for the lead role and unanimously agreed on Sonam.
