Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, whose film "Raees" is set to hit the screens next year, says he feels that by then the whole issue of demonetisation will settle down.
While many single screen cinema halls in India have been badly affected by the scrapping of high denomination currency notes, Shah Rukh feels that in a few days from now, the situation will improve.
"I think things will get better as execution of system takes place. So, I think initially many people have made the choice that entertainment can take a back seat, certain luxury could take a back seat when there is a cash crunch," Shah Rukh told reporters at the trailer launch of "Raees" on Wednesday.
"But I think as we have been assured, it is seeming to ease off... and we did notice that with 'Dear Zindagi'. There is a positive difference as far as spending money on entertainment is concerned," he added.
Shah Rukh, whose character has grey shades in "Raees", says he tries not to repeat his roles.

he said: "i try my best not to repeat my roles. i try not to be like 'anjaam' or 'darr'. if it becomes same type of genre, then there is no point. i think rahul (director) and his writers have written this character beautifully."</div>

"i believe you should not justify a bad man as a character. i think he is a bad man but he has a good heart. no matter where you reach in your life, as long as you take responsibilities for your action, god will forgive us," he added.</div>

speaking about the clash, srk said: "we decided this long time back. we made the decision as soon as we came to know that both the films are coming together. therefore, we took the decision to release the film a day before. 'kaabil' is coming in evening shows and we are coming on regular shows. it's a logical decision as 26th is a holiday. so, why not take an advantage of that?"</div>.jpg)
