Raees celebrated box office crores with a party in Mumbai on Monday. As much as he is happy with the success of
Raees, he said that
Raees should not be compared to blockbusters like
Aamir Khan's Dangal and Salman Khan's Sultan. "Why should we compare with only the last big hit, like Dangal and Sultan which are much bigger hits than perhaps this film can ever be. We know that. That comparison from outside, very good. From inside, we know the truth that there is a limit it will go to and if it reaches we will be happy," the 51-year-old actor told news agency PTI.
