Pak actress not replaced in SRK's film??
on Nov 1, 2016
Rumours suggested that Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees co-star, Mahira Khan may be getting replaced soon after the recent uproar against Pakistani actors working in Bollywood. But looks like this might not be true after all. The film’s co-producer Farhan Akhtar says they’ve no plans of replacing her. “What can I say? We’ve completed her shooting. The film is ready for release. If we had shot the film after the recent developments (the deterioration in Indo-Pak relations) we would have certainly not worked with any artiste from Pakistan,” adding to this he said, “It (the attempts to stop Johar’s film) should not have happened in the first place. Karan started the film a year ago. Is he supposed to pay a retrospective penalty?” asks Farhan. He also commented on Raj Thackeray’s demand of contributing 5 crores to the army fund saying it is on them how to show solidarity towards the army fund.
