The clash between Salman Khan’s Sultan and SRK’s Raees was sure to be avoided, but little did anyone know that Raees will be pushed as far as January 2017, already making it the most anticipated movie of the next year.
The fans of the actor were taken by surprise and excitement when the first teaser of the film was released. In Raees he is seen talking about alcohol business like never before!
After his latest flick, Fan, not really making an impact, Raees was something that the fans were eagerly looking forward to. But it seems like their wait is going to be longer.
In a joint statement by Farhan Akhtar, Ritesh Sidhwani and Shah Rukh Khan, they said,” “It was not an easy decision to move the film. We understand that ‘Raees’ is highly anticipated. However, a film of such magnitude requires the appropriate showcasing and therefore, we have decided to shift our release date to 26th January, 2017.
As we already know, this year is packed with a lot of releases by a lot of A-Listers and so the movie-goers are in for a treat.
However, learning that SRK’s film directed by Rahul Dholakia is going to be a cinematic bliss as well, it would be unfair for the film to clash with others this year. With Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Aamir Khan, Ajay Devgn, Hrithik Roshan etc., taking away all the holiday weekends, finding a befitting date for Raees did become a challenge.
More and more actors want to release their movies on a big holiday in order to help its success and we cannot blame them. As for all the SRK fans, there is nothing you can do but wait for 26 January to come as soon as possible.
