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.
