1. SRK Reveals Why ‘Raees’ Was Pushed to 2017
As we all know the release date of Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees which was earlier supposed to clash with Salman Khan’s Sultan has been pushed to next year. SRK has for the first time opened up about the reasons behind postponing the release date of his film, which is now expected to release on January 26.
While shooting the film, I was injured. It got delayed by 8-9 months. Then we did action but a few pieces were still left to be canned. We have completed it now but I felt due to my injury they didn’t come out the way I wanted. It’s over now. It was so rushed so we took a decision.Shah Rukh Khan
He also added about him and Salman being good friends so want to accommodate him.
Then Sultan was ready for release along with Raees. Two big films on the same day… they are friends too. So we all decided that if you are completely ready, we can accommodate. Not getting a free date because you have to announce beforehand is something I never do. When it is ready, we will announce it. Jan 26 is what we have decided on now… the film is complete though.Shah Rukh Khan
