Shah Rukh Khan says the cast of Raees is really wonderful
Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who will star with Pakistani actress Mahira Khan and acclaimed Indian actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui in the upcoming film Raees, is all praise for them, and says he would have to pull up his socks to perform as well as the duo.
"Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Mahira Khan are there in the film (Raees). Both of them are very accomplished actors. I think the cast is really wonderful," Shah Rukh said on Monday at the launch of Dabboo Ratnani's annual calendar.
"Now I would have to excel and perform like them," added the actor, who is set to join the film's shoot by March end.
Mahira, who became popular in India with her successful TV show Humsafar, will be seen as Shah Rukh's leading lady in Raees.
Raees will be co-produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani.
