and Jacqueline Fernandez on Eid next year? Daisy Shah, Saqib Saleem and Bobby Deol are. The full cast of Remo D'Souza's
Race 3 has been revealed and all our expectations have come true. Ahead of the big announcement, speculation about the film's cast had roped in names likes Daisy Shah, Saqib and Bobby Deol, and, now we learn it's actually true! The wait is not far for
Race 3 to go on floors - here's what the makers tweeted: "Race3 Shoot beings on 9th November!! Here are some photos from the set. More updates to follow soon." Produced by Ramesh Taurani,
Race 3 will be Salman Khan's Eid offering next year.
Apart from Salman, Jacqueline and Daisy, the rest of the cast has reportedly been finalised after also considering actors like Sooraj Pancholi, Aditya Roy Kapur abd Sidharth Malhotra. But it's Saqib Saleem, who scored the empty slot. "Saqib's role will also have negative shades to it like the rest of the cast," a source close to the production team told
Pinkvilla. Daisy Shah will reportedly be paired opposite Bobby Deol.
Race 3 is Salman Khan's debut stint with the action-thriller franchise
but has already reportedly suggested changes to the script. According to a report in
DNA stated, Salman wants the makers to infuse more humour, revise the drug-racket angle and tone down the intimate scenes: "He doesn't want them squirming in their seats. He doesn't want even one steamy scene or something that people in the family cannot watch together," the source told
DNA.
Jacqueline featured in 2013's
Race 2. The former entries to the
Race franchise were helmed by director duo Abbas-Mustan, who handed over the reins to Remo D'Souza this time.
Salman Khan has replaced
Saif Ali Khan as the Race franchise headliner, who, however, has no qualms about the new cast: "Who better than Salman Khan for this? I wish both of them luck," he told PTI.
