Raees', brings back the King of Romance in a totally different avatar, and he is all set to spread his magic with the movie which has released today.(Bollywood Hungama)

Raees: The last time we saw Shahrukh Khan spreading his magical wand was in Fan' and Dear Zindagi' in 2016, and he has hit the silver-screen in early 2017 with his power-packed performance as an action hero and this time with Raees'. Raees', brings back the King of Romance in a totally different avatar, and he is all set to spread his magic with the movie which has released today. The movie and song promos had already created a lot of hype among the people and the movie is nothing but the return of King Khan' with his brilliant performance. The buzz surrounding the movie was in full flame, be it for the way it was promoted, the speculation surrounding it or the controversies it leapt into. It is a special movie and here we list 5 reasons why you cannot give it a miss:

1. Raees sees the amalgamation of two seasoned actors who give an outstanding performance. Shahrukh Khan steals the show with his role as a gangster, Nawazuddin Siddiqui as usual gives out his best performance in the role of a fearless and defiant police officer. Their perfomances keep you glued to the screen till the gripping end and the chemistry between the two bowls you over.

You may also like to watch:

2. Besides having two big names in the movie, the supporting cast gives an amazing lift to the film. Mohd. Zeeshan Ayub aced the role of SRK's confidante. Besides, Mahira Khan, Atul Kulkarni, Sheeba Chaddha,Narendra Jha, Jaideep Alahawat,Utkarsh Mazumdar and Uday Tikekar performances give the movie the required edge. Mahira Khan as the love interest of Shahrukh Khan does her role with confidence.

3. Recreating an era is a task in itself, but director Rahul Dholakia manages to put his audience into that retro space and transports the viewers into that period seamlessly. The production design has successfully recreated the era and Dholakia and his team of writers made sure that it keeps the audience engrossed throughout.

4. Dialogues played a very important role in this movie and hence it has found its resonance amongst the audiene. Lines like Baniye Ka Dimaag Aur Miyanbhai Ki Daring' and Ammi Jaan Kehti Thi, Koi Dhanda Chota Nahi Hota, Aur Dhande Se Bada Koi Dharam Nahi Hota' has been well perceived by the audience.

5. Lastly, the direction of this high voltage drama is the anchor of the ship not to forget the performances of the duo (SRK and Nawazuddin) who breathe life to their characters. Though movie with similar plots have been made before, but its performances which puts the movie a notch higher.

Raees | Film Review

RASIKA POTE WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 25, 2017 BOLLYWOOD, CINEMA, FILM REVIEW, FILMS, MAHIRA KHAN, MOVIE REVIEW, NAWAZUDDIN SIDDIQUI, RAEES,RAEES FILM REVIEW, RAEES MOVIE REVIEW, RAEES REVIEW, RASIKA POTE, RED CHILLIES ENTERTAINMENT, SHAH RUKH KHAN RAEES
"Aa raha hoon main" - a line synonymous with Shahrukh Khan in and as Raees. A powerful dialogue that created great buzz among fans and cinephiles alike, and was the centre of all promotional activities related to the film. Needless to say, Khan has arrived with a bang and how. The actor is back with a power packed, full on entertaining film. Raees will to take you back to the 70s, an era of masala entertainers and the angry young man. Read on to know more:


As you watch Shahrukh Khan in and as Raees' unfold under the opening credits, even a newly turned cinephile is bound to get awestruck. Set in the backdrop of Gujarat of the 70's and 80s, a time when alcohol prohibition was affected in the state for over two decades, the film traces its central protagonist's journey to the top. His mother's words - "Koi dhanda chhota ya bada nahi hota, aur dhande se bada koi dharm nahin hota," becomes the main motto of his life. It shows how a young boy living in the bylanes of a small village called Fatehpur goes on to setup his own business and becomes Raees - the most powerful man in the state. Raees is intelligent, smart, witty, determined, brave and above all - a Man of steel with a heart of gold.


Nawazzuddin Siddiqui as ACP Majumdar is brilliant. His character is equally determined to catch hold of Raees and curb his illegal businesses. The relationship between Majumdar and Raees is one of the strongest highlights in the film. Both Nawaz and Khan have played their respective parts quite interestingly and their equation as a cop-thief keeps you engaged throughout the film. Mahira Khan (as Asiya) plays Khan's love interest in the film. The actress has made her presence felt with a strong performance. Rest of the cast too have done good justice to their respective roles, with a deserving mention for both Atul Kulkarni as Jayraaj Bhai and Mohammad Zeeshan Ayyub as Sadiq, who have performed incredibly well.


After the national award winning film Parzania, a few popular documentaries and his last release, Lamhaa in 2010, Raees marks Rahul Dholakia's return to the big screen after seven years. But, he has hit the bulls eyes with superb directorial skills and does complete justice to this power packed entertainer, just like a pro commercial film maker. The film is complete with some terrific action sequences, fabulous songs, and fascinating high speed shots, which only adds to the impact of Raees, both as a character and an overall film. Ram Sampath's fantastic background score keeps up with the energy and pace of the film. The soundtrack is catchy and serves as a breather in between the well paced storyline. Dialogues of the film have already garnered a lot of attention and accolades before the release, but the film has many more to cherish. K.U. Mohanan's cinematography manages to capture Raees like a King, so much that as an audience, you are in an awe of him throughout the film. Overall, Raees will keep you hooked on to your seats and glued on to the screen, right till the end credits roll out. This is paisa vasool entertainment, at its best!

Verdict: Gripping story, captivating performances, great songs and of course, Khan, in a never before seen avatar, delivering one of his best performances till date. Raees has everything that a blockbuster hit needs. We recommend you book tickets before they are sold out for the week!

It was an engrossing movie," said a viewer.

After a long wait, Shah Rukh Khan's latest release Raees landed in the theatres on Wednesday. Even before its release, the movie managed to create a lot of buzz, courtesy brand Shah Rukh Khan. The makers of the film encashed on his stardom as the movie witnessed no less than 80 percent occupancy in the morning show on the first day of its release.

The gangster saga which revolves around prohibition and stars Shah Rukh Khan as a bootlegger in Gujarat had the audience in awe. Shah Rukh's look as he plays the kohl-eyed gangster Raees Alam had his female fans all weak in the knees.

"Hot hot hot, I could not just take my eyes off Shah Rukh," a female viewer gushed over the Raees of Bollywood as she walked out of the theatre after watching the film. "Shah Rukh managed to steal hearts both as a gangster and a loving husband. He is the king of Bollywood for sure," said another SRK fan.

A fan actually came to watch the movie dressed as Miyanbhai (Shah Rukh Khan's character in Raees) at Delhi's Odeon. The only person he noticed in the movie was the star. He said, "Raess is a superhit movie and Shah Rukh and Nawazuddin Siddiqui have stolen the show. Everyone must watch it."

Pakistani actor Mahira Khan, who has debuted in the movie opposite Shah Rukh, also impressed the viewers to a level that they are comparing her to her Bollywood counterparts. "Mahira is so much better than many Bollywood actresses," said a viewer.

Another important aspect of the movie was its engrossing storyline. "There was not a single moment in the movie when I felt bored. It was an engrossing movie. It is definitely a must watch. Got to see such an interesting movie after a long time," said a viewer.

While all were awestruck with Shah Rukh and Nawazuddin's acting in the movie, there was someone who felt that the makers of the movie somewhere lost the plot by portraying the dual shades of Shah Rukh's character. A viewer said,"It was difficult to distinguish between the two roles Shah Rukh essayed in the movie. He should have either stuck to being a loving husband or should have maintained his gangster attitude throughout the movie."
