Race 3 looks to have the makings of Salman Khan's next Jai Ho! We are not saying this out of the air, but it is going by how the trailer of Bhai's upcoming movie, as well as its songs, have been received. While hardcore fans of Salman Khan have been doing their best to defend the movie, the trailer of Race 3 has received much more criticism for being a desperate Fast & Furious ripoff than living upto the thriller genre of the franchise. Right from the OTT action sequences to the stilted performances to the atrocious dialogues, everything has been trolled.
But even when we say that Bhai fans have been defending the trailer, it has received considerably more dislikes than any of Salman's recent movie trailers. We decided to compile some of the stats of Salman Khan's recent movie trailers and see how their dislikes: Likes ratio fare against each other.
Let's start with Race 3.
Race 3
Percentage: 32.75%
This trailer is from Salman Khan Films' official page. The trailer on TIPS' page fares better.
Percentage: 17.97%
Now let's look at six of his last releases
Tiger Zinda Hai
Percentage: 8.90%
Tubelight
Percentage: 11.33%
Sultan
Percentage: 10.10%
Prem Ratan Dhan Payo
Percentage: 15.60%
Bajrangi Bhaijaan
Percentage: 8.67%
Kick
Percentage: 8.90%
Going by these stats, it is clear as water to see that both the uploaded trailers of Race 3 have scored more dislikes compared to other Salman Khan movie trailers in recent times. There is no doubt that when the movie releases on June 15, Race 3 will get a huge initial thanks to Salman Khan's crazy fan-base and the masala content. But it has to be seen if the movie can sustain its run in the days ahead to become one of his biggest grossers or end up being another Tubelight or Jai Ho.
Race 3 is directed by Remo D'Souza and also stars Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Jacqueline Fernandez, Daisy Shah and Saqib Saleem.
