Raees is a story about a cruel and clever bootlegger, who finds him in trouble when a brave cop starts chasing him. Nawaz will play the cop, which was initially signed by Farhan Akhtar. But Akhtar opted out last year because of date issues, thus bringing on board Nawaz. Pakistani actress Mahira Khan, who will make her Bollywood debut with Raees, will be the female lead in the film. The film has already gone on floors.
