The popular Bollywood film franchise, Race, is set to revive with its fourth instalment, and speculation is rife about who will take on the lead role. Interestingly, the previous instalment, Race 3, featured Salman Khan as the main protagonist, marking a departure from the earlier films, which starred Saif Ali Khan in the lead. However, according to the latest reports, the makers of the film have decided to bring back Saif Ali Khan to reprise his role in the upcoming Race 4.
Saif Ali Khan in Race 4?
This latest news has generated immense excitement among fans of the franchise, who are eagerly awaiting the return of Saif Ali Khan to the series. As the project is still in its nascent stages, not much is known about the plot or the rest of the cast, but the confirmation of Saif's involvement has certainly piqued the interest of cinephiles and enthusiasts alike.
According to Pinkvilla, a source revealed, “The actor has agreed in principle and is excited to get into the world of Race again. Ramesh Taurani is aiming to take the film on floors in the first quarter of 2025.”
“While the basic plot of Race 4 is locked, the team is presently working on the screenplay. Apart from Saif Ali Khan, a big ensemble will come on board and the casting is also underway. The makers are also looking to reboot it by getting in a fresh and credible voice to direct the film,” the source further added.
Meanwhile Saif Ali Khan is gearing up for the release of Devara, which also stars Janhvi Kapoor and Jr NTR in lead roles.
