Eros acquires worldwide distribution rights of Shah Rukh Khan's Raees

One of next year's most awaited films is Shah Rukh Khan starrer Raees. While a lot has been said in the media about the film, we now hear that the makers of the film Red Chillies Entertainment and Excel Entertainment who are ensuring the film gets a wide release have sold the worldwide distribution rights of the film to Eros.

The reason behind this apart from the recent successes Eros has had, is that the production - distribution house has a vast reach within the US and UK markets. Directed by Rahul Dholakia, Raees is being produced by Farhan Akhtar, Ritesh Sidhwani and Gauri Khan in association with RCE is slated for release on Eid next year.
