OMG! SALMAN KHAN'S RACE 3 TO STAR THIS CHOCOLATE BOY AS WELL?

Salman Khan starrer Race 3 is right up there in the headlines even before work on the film has actually started! While there is still no clarity on Amitabh Bachchan's presence in the film, there seems to be another twist in the cast. If sources are to be believed, one of the hottest male actors might join the cast next. The producers of the film were very keen to cast a young A-lister from the current lot and it seems that they might've just found the man for the job.

A source close to the film confirms that Sidharth Malhotra has been approached for the film and the young heartthrob is seriously considering the film. “Yes, Sidharth has been approached for the part. Salman is very fond of Sidharth and suggested his name for the film. This is one of the biggest films that Sid has been offered. It will also be his first franchise,” the source was quoted as saying.

While there are reports that Salman is playing a baddie in the film, the source negated that and revealed, “Salman will never play the bad guy on screen. He doesn’t want to send out the wrong message to his fans. It has been learnt that the film will have an ensemble cast. They want it to be bigger and better than the previous Race films. Sid is considering doing the project, and since the film rolls out this October, he has the required dates. His Aiyaary will be over with another 10-15 day schedule in September itself.”

Race 3 is slated to go on floors in October and is rumoured to be completely different from the previous two films. Also, a  big announcement of the full cast is expected to be made soon.
