Raees has gotten a crazy amount of attention ever since news of Shahrukh Khan's turn as an underworld bootlegger was released. The film, which sees Shahrukh play the titular role, and Nawazuddin Sidiqui as his nemesis, has got everyone excited. But some of the most interesting facts of Raees aren't about the movie itself, but about how it was made. For instance, it was recently revealed that 60,000 bottles were destroyed during the now-famous steamroller scene. Check out some other interesting Raees figures: (Official Trailer)

60,000 bottles destroyed: Remember that amazing scene in the trailer where Nawazuddin's character drives a steamroller over all the liquor bottles? Turns out around 60,000 bottles were used for that scene and Nawaz pummeled through them in a matter of minutes! It also took the Raees team quite some time to collect that many bottles for the scene. (Official Trailer)

50 frames: The minute Raees posters were released, we all fell in love with Shahrukh's quirky glasses. Their odd frames give him a distinct look, which was reportedly tough to achieve. According to DNA, the actor had to try on around 50 frames before he settled on the right one. The team approached venders from Bengaluru all the way to China for this look. (Official trailer)

13 years, three looks: Towards the end of the Raees trailer, we see glimpses of SRK as a politician. What's going on, you might wonder. The truth is the story stretches across 1980 to 1993 and shows Raees' rise from common man to gangster to politician. For the film's three phases, Shahrukh will have three distinct looks and a different set of glasses and outfits for each look, according to a report in Bollywood Hungama. (Official trailer)

Four days for four minutes: Laila O Laila, the remix of the 1980 hit featuring Zeenat Aman, will be at the most four minutes long. However, to film this short clip, the crew took four days with a considerable part of the allotted time dedicated solely to Shahrukh's entry into the song. (Official trailer)

21 mn views in 24 hours: Shahrukh Khan's box office credibility may have wavered with Fan and Dilwale, but the actor proved why he was the badshah of the box office after Raees' trailer broke all records by getting 21 million views in 24 hours – that means on an average 200 people were watching it every second since its release. That's a far cry from Aamir Khan's Dangal which only got 9 million views. (Official trailer)
