National award winning film maker Rahul Dholakia is not worried about the date clash of the two films, Kaabil and Raees, but more about the high expectations that audiences have of his film.
“As a director, the release date is not in my hand. So, I am not worried about Raees and Kaabil date clash, but people’s expectation”
“From the day we launched the trailer, people started expecting something extra special from the film, and rightfully so. It is a larger than life film starring actors like Shah Rukh, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Atul Kulkarni and some other fine actors of our time. I just hope we match that (expectation) and people love the film,”
The director shared one memorable incident in which he seek Shah Rukh’s help;
“There is a nice romantic scene where Raees holds Aasiya (Mahira) up and turns her around. So, Shah Rukh suggested taking it in a speedy frame and I agreed. After taking the shot, I checked the monitor and said, isn’t it too filmy?” We’re making a film only, Rahul narrated King Khan as having replied.”
