Ras Al Khaimah: H.H. Sheikh Saud bin Saqr Al Qasimi, Crown Prince and Deputy Ruler of Ras Al Khaimah, today received noted Indian film actor, Shah Rukh Khan and an accompanying delegation who called on him at the Al Dhait Palace here.

Shah Rukh Khan had on Sunday launched the AED 8 billion beachfront residential development project, `Shah Rukh Khan Boulevard' to be located on the Dana Island in Ras Al Khaimah, along with TSA Group.

Sheikh Saud welcomed the actor and appreciated his interest in Ras Al Khaimah's fast- growing property and lifestyle development sector.

"Ras Al Khaimah's landmark projects like Dana Island, Al Marjan Island along with other initiatives will place the emirate in a totally different league, making it a destination of choice for investors and tourists from across the world.

Shiekh Saud and to know more about the wonderful vision he has for the development of the emirate. Hopefully we will bring some value, goodness and creativity, which as an actor I will try to add to the new development," Shah Rukh Khan said after the meeting.

Scheduled for completion in 2012, Shah Rukh Khan Boulevard will be a world-class beachfront community comprising 10 premium residential towers and featuring a diverse range of lifestyle amenities on Dana Island, a project developed by master developer Rakeen. It will have modern residences including specially designed studios, and one-and two-bedroom apartments and townhouses.
