Pakistani Actress Mahira Khan All Set To Star Opposite Shah Rukh Khan in 'Raees'


Mahira Khan has already wooed Indian fans with her incredible performance in Humsafar and now, as reported, the beautiful actress is all set to make her Bollywood debut opposite the King Khan of Bollywood 'Shah Rukh Khan' in his upcoming Crime/Drama movie 'Raees'. The movie is currently scheduled to release on  17 July 2015 (India.)

The producer of the movie, Ritesh Sidhwani took to Twitter to confirm the development.

Mahira visited India last month where during media interactions she was repeatedly asked whether she would sign a Bollywood film. The actor had reportedly dropped subtle hints of the Bollywood filmmakers she would like to work with.

However, the quickest to pick up on the actor's interest to work in Bollywood were producers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar who finalised the actress for director Rahul Dholakia's 'Raees'. Reportedly SRK was present on the set during the auditioning of the actress 'Mahira Khan' for her role in the movie.

Plot:
SRK plays a gangster based in Gujarat while Nawazuddin Siddiqui is the cop who traps him in Mumbai. Mahira Khan will possibly be playing SRK's wife in the film.

According to the Mirror, a source said the producers were looking for an "international" face instead of a familiar Bollywood name which explains how Mahira bagged the coveted role.
