Pulkit Samrat had arrived at a Family Court in Bandra, with his estranged wife, Shweta Rohira where they filed for divorce. The actor had allegedly misbehaved with a photographer. Santosh Nagarkar, the photographer, told Deccan Chronicle: "Pulkit and Shweta arrived together at around 1 pm. They were inside the court for over three hours. When they left, Pulkit attempted to make a run to avoid the cameras. When we chased him, he threatened us and grabbed me by my collar. He was accompanied by his security guards and lawyer, who also punched us."

Raees' plot leaked

Bollywood Life reported that a source has revealed the plot of Shah Rukh Khan's Raees. Check the story here:

First phase of Raees: "During the first phase, you will see Raees (essayed by SRK) being shown as a small town guy. He struggles a lot in the initial period, but remains determined to make it big. During this period he starts working for a smuggler. Raees' job is to help smuggle liquor, store it in ware houses and then sell the stock illegally to local vendors. Though he is happy with what he is doing for a couple of years, he gets frustrated soon. A few incidents and very less income change his outlook and he decides to start his own business."

Second phase: "The second phase sees him set up his own business of smuggling and hoarding liquor. He battles with a lot of competitors and you will see a lot of action and drama taking place during this part. But, Raees overcomes all these obstacles and becomes a huge name. During this period, his love story with Aasiya (essayed by Mahira Khan) is also shown and their chemistry is something people will be talking about for quite some time. He is also seen helping his community and is respected by the locals and feared by his competitors."

Third phase: "The third phase sees the arrival of ACP Majmudar (played by Nawazuddin Siddiqui). The tough cop arrives to the city and vows to stop all the illegal activities and he gets right to it. He starts cracking down on the illegal alcohol trade and starts affecting Raees' business. The two lock horns and we see Raees visiting the police station and jail on a couple of occasions. The bootlegger gets upset and tries taking the help of his political friends. After a few discussions, he decides to turns into a politician too. A really cool song will play when he campaigns and celebrates his victory. It will totally give you goosebumps. He then uses his power to overpower Majmudar."
