Pakistani actress Mahira to feature opposite SRK in Raees
Mumbai, Dec 16 (IBNS): Pakistan actress Mahira Khan is slated to make her Bollywood debut in Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar's Raees, directed by Rahul Dholakia.
The film has Shah Rukh Khan playing a don and is likely to have Nawazuddin Siddiqui playing a cop.
According to a source, SRK had dropped in at the audition to meet Mahira.
The VJ-turned-actress won notices worldwide for her performance in Shoaib Mansoor's Bol (2011) and also visited Mumbai last month after her television serial Humsafar gained popularity.
