Even without that headline, I am sure many of you would have already booked your tickets for Salman Khan's Eid gift for his fans. Race 3 puts Salman Khan right in his comfort zone of a genre - action thriller. While the first two movies had Saif Ali Khan in the lead, Salman Khan takes over the protagonist's role in this tale of double-crossing and treachery. The only actors who have been carried forward from the previous movies are Anil Kapoor and Jacqueline Fernandez, though they are playing different characters in Race 3.

Being the sole release on June 15, we can easily expect Race 3 to get a great start at the box office. Despite the mixed reactions to the promos and the songs, die-hard fans of Salman Khan will surely throng the theatres to see how Bhai has fared in the new film. It's only after the weekend that we will know whether Race 3 goes the Tiger Zinda Hai way or the Tubelight way at the box office.

So if you are not planning to watch the movie, we have five reasons here to recommend you to book the tickets for the same right away!

Salman Khan and the Fan Craze

Of course, the primary reason for you to give any shit about Race 3 is Salman Khan. Say what you want to about his acting skills, the man's star power is undeniable. Watch Race 3 first day first show, and you will know the real hold he has over the fans. They will cheer to any damn scene where Bhai is doing Bhai things, and if and when he takes off his shirt, the cheer will be deafening! That's an experience, right?

The supporting cast

We know that Salman Khan will come tops in the movie, but we are really curious to know what Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Daisy Shah, Jacqueline Fernandez and Saqib Saleem are doing in the movie. I mean, there has to be a reason why Salman and Bobby walk shirtless in that sweltering heat!

The cheesy hammy lines

Let's admit one thing - Race 3 has gloriously bad dialogues but in a 'so bad it's good' sort of way. It will be really fun to hear more such gems like the above in the movie!

The action sequences

Those who fawn over the ridiculously OTT action scenes in the Fast and Furious franchise should not make fun of the action scenes in Race 3. Also remember no matter how bad the action scenes in the movie will be, it can't match the silly stunt that Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone pulled at the end of Race 2, when they parachuted their car from a crashing plane!

The twists

Race franchise is known for its twists, some of them just plain ludicrous. We are really curious to know what Remo D'Souza and co. are looking to serve us in Race 3.
