Raees' new poster loaded with Shah Rukh Khan and Mahira Khan's chemistry

25 January 2017 has already been marked as a D-day for Shah Rukh Khan fans. The superstar's Raees has already created quite a buzz among fans, with Khan's look and intensity in the trailer standing out. Even before the fans can get over the buzz of the new year, the makers of the film have released two new intense posters that highlight Khan's role. 

The first poster has Khan in all his gangster imperiousness. Sporting a kickass stubble and uber cool sunglasses, the actor looks like he means business. The image also looks to be part of a desert song in the movie, 'O Zaalima' going by the tagline of the tweet below. 

The second poster has Khan looking battered in bruises, but still romantic as ever. He is caught in an intense moment with his leading lady, Mahira Khan. The tagline on the poster is certain to become a pickup line in the days to come, reads 'Tu shama hai, to yaad rakhna.. main bhi hoon parwana...'. The line is in theme with the throwback feel of the movie, and mirrors the verses from the song 'Gore rang pe na itna gumaan kar' from Roti (1974)

Directed by Rahul Dholakia, Raees is set to release on 25 January, on the same date as the Hrithik Roshan-starrer Kaabil.
