MUMBAI: Pakistan’s star actress Mahira Khan is all set for her Bollywood debut, as reports said she is expected to appear with Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan in “Raees”.
According to Times of India, the actress visited India last month and during her media interactions she was repeatedly asked whether whether she would sign a Bollywood film.
The actor had reportedly dropped subtle hints of the Bollywood filmmakers she would like to work with.
The film has Shah Rukh Khan playing a don and is likely to have Nawazuddin Siddiqui playing a cop. A source told TOI that SRK had dropped in at the audition to meet Mahira.
She plays SRK’s wife in the film. He’s a gangster based in Gujarat while Nawazuddin Siddiqui is the cop who traps him in Mumbai, the source said.
“It’s a complex role and both the film’s director Rahul Dholakia and producers, Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar, believe she is perfect for the part.”
The source added that the film would go on floors in Mumbai in February 2015 and certain scenes and parts will be filmed in Gujarat.
