Shah Rukh Khan's Raees gets Karan Johar's help; Hrithik Roshan's Kaabil to suffer?

Bollywood is eagerly awaiting for the clash of the titans, Shah Rukh Khan's Raees and Hrithik Roshan's Kaabil which is set to release one year from now amid the Republic Day weekend 2016. According to a popular daily, Shah Rukh's closest companion movie producer and director Karan Johar had an incredible hand in getting best arrangements for the widest release of Raees.

Karan's Dharma Production had purchased the Hindi rights for the biggest blockbuster of 2015, Baahubali - The Begining. SRK, Riteish and Farhan have locked Anil Thadani as distributor for their film Raees. Karan has advised Shah Rukh on how to get the best deals from single screen owners to get maximum number of screens. Anil has signed three film deal with the single  screen theatre owners, as he owns the distribution rights of Baahubali 2 and Mirzya. And everyone know what is the worth of the sequel of Bahubali which is hitting screens on April next year. So he has made sure the single screens give ample amount screens for Raees as well. As Baahubali 2 is one of the hottest and most anticipated releases of 2017, they are left with no other choice but the accept the deal.

This has sent shocking waves to the Kaabil's producer Rakesh Roshan, as the movie will suffer badly due to this move if it does not get proper single screens in Mumbai. Hrithik Roshan desperately needs a hit after the debacle in the form of Mohenjo Daro which lost the clash with Akshay Kumar's Rustom earlier this year. Now will the Roshan Jr, shift the release date of Kaabil or take on SRK's Raees is a wait and watch situation.
