We were the first to tell you that Farhan Akhtar and Shah Rukh Khan were doing Rahul Dholakia’s next film (his earlier film was Parzania). Produced by Excel Entertainment, Ritesh Sidhwani has not only succeeded in bringing these two superstars together, but has also been the first to take the sought-after Eid 2015 slot. Titled Raees, this action film is set in Gujarat and has Shah Rukh playing a bootlegger and Farhan, a policeman. It will go on the floor mid-2014. While Shah Rukh and Farhan are the best of friends, it would be fun seeing Farhan chasing Shah Rukh in the film.
