"The latest reports also inform that the film has smashed the box office record in Singapore by collecting $226,000, which is touted to be the highest ever weekend for any Bollywood film in this market," the makers were quoted as saying.

The film features Shah Rukh as a bootlegger in a story set against the backdrop of liquor prohibition in Gujarat. 

Helmed by national award-winning director Rahul Dholakia, Raees stars actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Pakistani actor Mahira Khan alongside Shah Rukh Khan.
