Director Rahul Dholakia says the audience will be surprised to see Shah Rukh Khan in a role with grey shades in his upcoming film, Raaes.

“There are a lot of grey shades to his [Khan’s] character. He is playing an interesting character. He has done a great job. He is brilliant in the film, people will be amazed to see him like this,” Dholakia said.

“It’s a big film for me. One needs to do his best and I have given my best,” he said.

This is the first time that the Parzania helmer has teamed up with Khan, whom he found to be a very humble person.

“He is very nice, sweet, humble and loving person. There is a reason why he is up there, it’s not because of the actor that he is but it is also to do with the person he is,” the Indian National Award-winning director added.

Dholakia said the promotions of Raaes will begin soon.

“The marketing team is working on the promotional campaign and all.”

Dholakia also wished Khan on his 51st birthday, on Wednesday.
