Shah Rukh Khan: Let Aamir, Salman wrestle, will stick to ROMANCE !

Mumbai: Shahrukh Khan says he will let his contemporaries, Aamir and Salman Khan, handle wrestling while he will stick with his romantic genre. "Let Aamir and Salman handle wrestling.. two of them are enough to handle wrestling. Above all I don't look like a wrestler from any angle. I am a romantic hero and I don't know wrestling," said Shah Rukh during a media interaction for Eid celebrations at his residence Mannat.

Budget of the film suffers if the movie is not releasing on 4,000 screens. One needs to have 8,000 to 10,000 theaters for two movies to release at the same time. I don't think two big films can released at the same time. Secondly, I suffered some injuries and there are body shot portions I still need to shoot. But otherwise the film is ready," he said. The movie is slated to hit the theater on January 26, but unfortunately on that particular day, "Raees" will collide with Hrithik Roshan-starrer "Kaabil", which kicked off recently. "We have discussed with Hrithik for 'Kaabil', because the movie has just started shooting. So hopefully we will come out on January 26 or 27, 2017," he added. "Raees" is directed by Rahul Dholakia and produced by Gauri Khan, Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar under their banners Red Chillies Entertainment and Excel Entertainment. It also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Mahira Khan. IANS
