New “Raees” song “O Zaalima” is exotic
Shah Rukh Khan has teased fans with snippets of “O Zaalima”, the second song from his upcoming film “Raees”, and eventually the actor shared the full song for his fans to enjoy. “O Zaalima”, a romantic track sung by Arijit Singh and Harshdeep kaur, features Shah Rukh and Pakistani actress Mahira Khan in exotic desert locations and other palatial spots confessing their love for each other. Shah Rukh looks handsome dressed in pathani suit all through the song, while Mahira goes through a number of costume changes.
Shah Rukh had been building up to the song's release, sharing snippets of the lyrics on his Twitter.
Before “O Zaalima”, the makers of “Raees” released earlier Sunny Leone's special song “Laila Main Laila”, a reimagining of Zeenat Aman's iconic item number from 1980 film “Qurbaani”. The song released on December 21, and has since then been viewed almost 50 million times on YouTube.
Shah Rukh Khan the plays titular role of Raees in Rahul Dholakia's film: a liquor baron operating from Gujarat. Among his many enemies is a police officer (played by Nawazuddin Siddiqui) who has vowed to put an end to Raees' illegal trade.
“Raees”, co-produced by Farhan Akhtar's Excel Entertainment and SRK's Red Chillies Entertainment, will hit the screens on January 25. The film was earlier scheduled to release on Eid in 2016, but the makers instead made way for Salman Khan's “Sultan”. The film's release was further delayed to avoid clash with Karan Johar's “Ae Dil Hai Mushikil”. The film is finally opening a day before Republic Day, along with Hrithik Roshan's “Kaabil”.
