Salman Khan‘s Race 3 is one of the most exciting new projects that we have heard off! From Sidharth Malhotra to Aditya Roy Kapur and Daisy Shah, a lot of names have been attached to the project. But for now, we know that only Salman and Jacqueline have been confirmed to be a part of the movie. Amitabh Bachchan had also revealed recently that he was approached for the film, but he rejected the offer. Consequently, Aditya Pancholi was signed for the movie and the rest is history! But why did Amitabh refuse to sign Salman Khan’s Race 3? Is there an issue with the stars? Or is there some other reason? Like always, we have all the answers to your questions…

Amitabh and Salman share an amicable bond, but it is the date issues that made the veteran star turn down Race 3. As a source revealed to DNA After Hrs, “Big B already has given his October and November dates for the football biopic – Jhund. The Race 3 team plans to begin their shoot around the same time. The clash of dates meant that Bachchan had to choose one and since he had already given his dates to Jhund, he politely turned down Race 3.” We have to applaud Amitabh for not leaving Jhund for a much bigger film like Race 3, shows why everyone trusts him so much!

In the meantime, director Remo D’Souza is on a recce. From what we hear, the film will be shot across Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Europe and Singapore. The makers want Race 3 to be bigger and badder than ever. With Salman playing a grey character in the film for the very first time, it is going to be really exciting. It is scheduled to release on Eid 2018.
