Story Line of Raees

The action and crime thriller movie Raees is all staged and plotted in Gujrat based on a factious character Raees Alam who is a bootlegger by profession. Well according to experts this movie is based on a criminal named Abdul Latif’s life but filmmakers had denied all the spooky stories by stating that it’s a pure work of fiction and doesn’t resemble any person living or dead. The actual shooting of this movie is done in Mumbai itself but all the shots were designed in order to display the slum area of Ahmedabad, Gujrat during the period of some 80’s to 90’s but the shooting was ended in Gujarat in January 2016.
This movie is produced by the lady luck of Shahrukh Khan, his better half Gauri Khan along with Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar under their respective banners Red Chillies Entertainment and Excel Entertainment.
The special item number song “Laila Main Laila” was taken from Qurbani which is 80’s film and recreated. This song was originally written by Indeevar, and composed by Kalyanji–Anandji, and it was sung by Kanchan, Amit Kumar. Now for the movie, Raees chorus of this epic song has been recreated by Ram Sampath who is a composer by profession and some additional lyrics added this time to this song are written by Javed Akhtar. Have a look at both the versions of songs.

Plot

Alam is a bootlegger by profession. He has built up an empire all from scratch only and only because of his relationships and meteoric rise and therefore he had become the most powerful person of Gujrat. Now we all know that Gujrat is a dry state so how can someone manage big liquor bossiness at such a big level. Actually, Alam was a bright and sharp minded student during his school days and due to this trait, he learns to bootleg at a very young age. At the initial level, he started working under Atul Kulkarni who had portrayed the role of a well-known and renowned liquor smuggler in the town and sharpen his skills there and later he set up a business of his own. He has one principle, “Koi dhanda chota nai hota, aur dhande se bada koi dharam nai hota, jisse kisika bura na ho” on which he worked and believed. His level of intelligence can be simply tested by the fact that his revolutionary ideas of management were so damn unique that at that time it was hard to imagine them or even thinking of them by chance.
Another trait of Alam was that was well focused on his work that if found any kind of obstacle in his track so drives it out as soon as possible. Alam is flying high in his job day and day and simultaneously receiving popularity because of his unique character even doing an illegal deed he has gained a lot of public’s trust which is a very big deal and this all happens because of his absolute fixation, entrepreneurial flair.

One side Alam was gaining public trust but on the other hand, ACP Majmudar has almost thwarted and challenged his business. It is because Majmudar has only one reason to live and that is to vanish the crime from city and globe as well. This leads to a fantastic fight between them and for Tom and Jerry lovers like me it’s a good chance to watch it in a new Avatar. And now the question is though Alam has been caught by ACP but will he be able to nail Alam or not? To know the answer rush to your nearest hall to watch Raees.
Performance
SRK appears totally speculative while portraying his character of Raees Alam and to garnish his look his lamp blacked eyes are the perfect element. There are suiting him so fine they are specially designed for him and only him. His looks are not just to define him his work but his acting is also in the queue to support him. He totally nailed his character if we say that he has to look extreme aggressive or he has to break down in tears or whatever he has done full justification with that. When he looks in anger with his soot eye so that look of him is extremely fabulous. There is nothing wrong to say that this time he has done far better than his previous projects such Dilwale and Happy New Year and he has driven his fan crazy for him again. If we move to the character of Aasiya Raees Alam, wife of Raees played by Mahira Khan was equally disappointing there is nothing special in her role and she even gets failed to dramatize much time during the movie.
The guru aka Zeeshan Ayyub as a boss of Alam has also done a commendable job. He refines actor and all the supporting artist such Atul Kulkarni, Sheeba Chadda, Uday Tikekar had done a wow job as a supporting cast.
And as all we know that our honest cop aka Nawazuddin Siddiqui is a star himself he has always impressed the congregation with his special skills and even according to the contents of gossip market of our B-town he has done one of his movies in just 17 days and so why he won’t justify his character this time. His skills and talents are so enough to tie the moviegoers till the end.
Last but not the least our Jism girl Sunny Leone was sizzling in her item number ‘Laila’ she was looking pretty and hot as always. Her features are so perfect which always beautify and glorify her.
