Over the last few weeks, ‘Race 3’ has been making the headlines. And most of the attention it garnered is because of the star cast of the film.
Initially, we only knew about Salman Khan joining the third installment of the film series which honestly, was enough reason for the country to go haywire. We also got to know that the beautiful Jacqueline Fernandez would in a leading role.
But then Salman went ahead and revealed the entire cast of the movie and everyone was shocked, to say the least.

His tweet revealed that they will be joined by Daisy Shah, Bobby Deol and Saqib Saleem in the lead.
It was rather disappointing for the fans of the franchise to see that none of the actors from the original film were reprising their roles especially Saif Ali Khan and Anil Kapoor. Their roles in the first two parts have become somewhat iconic and it was hard to imagine the third part without them.
But much to our delight, Anil Kapoor who played the role of a private detective, Robert D’Costa aka R.D in the previous two films, is back on board to join the film!

And yet again, it was Salman Khan who provided us with proof of this news with another tweet.

R. D’s double-meaning dialogues are synonymous with the movie series and his relationship with his previous two ‘assistants’ were extremely fun to watch. However, we don’t know which actress would be opposite him this time.

Also, seeing Kapoor and Khan onscreen together after a long time is sure to make fans go crazy as their comic chemistry in two of the blockbusters- ‘Biwi No. 1’ and ‘No Entry’ was immensely liked by the audience.
Managing director of TIPS, Ramesh Taurani also took to his Twitter to make the announcement.
Picture agar Race ho, toh yeh kaise na ho @AnilKapoor He’s coming back to the Race @BeingSalmanKhan @remodsouza @tipsofficial @SKFgroup @Asli_Jacqueline @ShahDaisy25 @thedeol @Saqibsaleem @Freddydaruwala #Race3 pic.twitter.com/U3Wu52LVkZ

We can’t agree more with his caption!
Apart from ‘Race 3’ we would get to see more of Anil Kapoor in the coming years as the actor is currently filming ‘Fanne Khan’ which also stars Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Rajkummar Rao.
Helmed by Remo D’Souza, ‘Race 3’ went on floors this November and is expected to release on Eid in 2018.
