Shah Rukh Khans Raees is one of the most exciting films of the year and while everyone is waiting for the film to release, we have an EXCLUSIVE scoop for you guys. We have with us all the details about Raees story. While everyone must have deduced the storyline from the trailer and promos, we are set to surprise you with the story of SRK's latest film. Our source exclusively mentioned to us that the movie will show three phases of Raees' life. And this decision to show three phases was suggested by Shah Rukh Khan himself.
As our source reveals to us exclusively, "When Shah Rukh Khan was going through the look test, he was given quite a few different outfits to wear. He liked all of them and suggested the makers to show three different yet flowing phases of Raees' life, where he would wear different kinds of clothes. Everyone thought it was a brilliant idea and the story was moulded into it. During the first phase, you will see Raees (essayed by SRK) being shown as a small town guy. He struggles a lot in the initial period, but remains determined to make it big. During this period he starts working for a smuggler. Raees' job is to help smuggle liquor, store it in ware houses and then sell the stock illegally to local vendors. Though he is happy with what he is doing for a couple of years, he gets frustrated soon. A few incidents and very less income changes his outlook and he decides to start his own business."

Talking about the second phase of the film, our source adds, "The second phase sees him set up his own business of smuggling and hoarding liquor. He battles with a lot of competitors and you will see a lot of action and drama taking place during this part. But, Raees overcomes all these obstacles and becomes a huge name. During this period, his love story with Aasiya (essayed by Mahira Khan) is also shown and their chemistry is something people will be talking about for quite some time. He is also seen helping his community and is respected by the locals and feared by his competitors."
And then comes the twist in the tale. "The third phase sees the arrival of ACP Majmudar (played by Nawazuddin Siddiqui). The tough cop arrives to the city and vows to stop all the illegal activities and he gets right to it. He starts cracking down on the illegal alcohol trade and starts affecting Raees' business. The two lock horns and we see Raees visiting the police station and jail on a couple of occasions. The bootlegger gets upset and tries taking the help of his political friends. After a few discussions, he decides to turns into a politician too. A really cool song will play when he campaigns and celebrates his victory. It will totally give you goosebumps. He then uses his power to overpower Majmudar," reveals our source. ALSO READ - Raees song Dhingana: This is how Shah Rukh Khan became Raees of Gujarat - watch video
