When Shah Rukh Khan's forthcoming movie Raees was going on
floors, there had been news that Khan's character is based on so-called
bootlegger Abdul Latif, who ran the illicit liquor business in Gujarat during
the peak of Prohibition in the 1990s.
At present, it seems that this connection might prove to be worrying
for the Raees team as we have heard that Mustak Ahmed, the son of Abdul Latif,
has sent legal notices to nine prominent people involved with the making of
Raees, including SRK, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, producer Ritesh Sidhwani and
director Rahul Dholakia, asking them to cease and stop with their film as it is
feared that it might depict Abdul Latif in a negative light.
Film Raees, which is slated to release this Eid, also stars
Mahira Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
