A while ago, the trailer of Raees was released and it blew our minds! We all can’t wait to see Shah Rukh Khan as Miyan bhai but we are equally excited about the Bollywood debut of Pakistani sensation, Mahira Khan. And for those who don’t  know, Nawazuddin Siddiqui will also be seen in a pivotal role in the movie.

Apparently, his character is quite grey and Mahira plays his arm-candy (before SRK aka Miyan bhai woos her) in the flick.

And it seems the script demanded a scene where Nawaz’s character had to forcefully have sex with Mahira’s character. But reportedly, the actress had downright refused to do the scene as it was supposed to be too wild and edgy for her. But considering that sequence is said to be quite important to take the story further, we wonder if the production team managed to convince Mahira to play the part. I guess only time will tell.
