Mahira, SRK's 'Raees' is reportedly getting a sequel

Producer Ritesh Sidhwani hints #RaeesReturns

Shah Rukh Khan's Raees proved to be a huge success last year. According to Zee News, fans and critics appreciated a not-so-romantic SRK in a gangster avatar and the film did it big at the box office.

Pakistani beauty Mahira Khan also became the first female Pakistani actor to star alongside King Khan. Directed by Rahul Dholakia, there were also reports that Raees was the most pirated film of 2017. Despite being a big concern, producer Ritesh Sidhwani hinted at the sequel.
