Bollywood Superstar Shahrukh Khan's last release 'Dilwale' crossed the 100 crore mark within three days of its release.
For 2016, two major releases of the star are lined up for Shahrukh Khan's fans.
FAN
The first film to release will be Yash Raj Banner film, Fan, directed by Maneesh Sharma and produced by Aditya Chopra.
'Fan' was slated for a release in 2015. However, owing to Shahrukh's injury while shooting 'Happy New Year', the production process for this film was delayed. 'Fan' is a thriller where Shahrukh Khan is the lead role. He plays the role of Shahrukh's ardent fan 'Gaurav' in the film as well as 'Shahrukh Khan'. The trailer gives a glimpse of what to expect from the movie. The teaser has already garnered 7.5 million views till now.
RAEES
Shahrukh's next release will be Raees. Way different from Fan, Raees once again showcases the Bollywood Badshah in shades of grey. Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Excel Entertainment, directed by Rahul Dholakia, Raees is a crime-drama.
Besides Shahrukh Khan in the lead role, it also stars Nawazzudin Siddiqui and Pakistani Actress Mahira Khan in leading roles.
The film is set in 1980s Gujarat and tells the story of Abdul Latif (played by Shahrukh) who is a bootlegger in the state where alcohol is prohibited. His illegal business empire is challenged when he has a face-off with a Gujarat Police Officer (played by Nawazzudin Siddiqui).
Slated to release on Eid this year, the trailer of the film has already garnered over 10 million views.
