Farhan and Sidhwani brought the rights of Amitabh Bachchan-starrer "Don" to be made with Shah Rukh. The remake version came in 2006 and saw SRK stepping into the shoes of Big B and it also starred Priyanka Chopra and Boman Irani in pivotal roles.
The second installment of King Khan's "Don" released in 2011 with the "Fan" star and Priyanka reprising their roles.
Farhan is excited about "Raees" featuring SRK, Mahira Khan and Nawazuddin Siddqui in the lead. Directed by Rahul Dholakia the film is set to release on January 25.
