Read why Amitabh Bachchan declined to work in Salman starrer Race 3?

Remo Dsouza's upcoming film Race 3 is making news ever since superstar Salman Khan came on the board. It's obvious Salman's presence will make the franchise even grander and better keeping in mind the actor's fan following.

Rumours of Amitabh Bachchan being a part of the film were doing rounds but the actor has said a NO to work in the film. Now, reports suggest that Aditya Pancholi has bagged the same role.

A source reveals to a leading daily, "Big B has already given his October and November dates for the football biopic Jhund. The Race 3 team also plan to begin shooting 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".

Big B's reason is justified although it would have been amazing to watch Amitabh Bachchan and Salman Khan in the same film. We missed a chance, didn't we?

Sajid Nadiadwala is keen on having Varun Dhawan play a cameo in Race 3, says an insider. "The most popular scene in Judwaa 2 was that of Salman and Varun together. Seeing their effortless chemistry, Sajid has been toying with the idea of casting them together", adds the source.
