The Race franchise gets its third movie, with a completely new plot and characters. So exit Saif Ali Khan, the lead of the first two movies, and enter Salman Khan, the lead of Race 3. Race 3 is directed by choreographer-turned-director, Remo D'Souza, known for making movies like the ABCD franchise and A Flying Jatt. Salman Khan himself has produced the movie, along with Ramesh Taurani of TIPS Films. Jacqueline Fernandez is the female lead, while the movie also stars Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Daisy Shah and Saqib Saleem.

The makers have arranged for a special screening of Race 3 for their friends and close associates in the industry. So nearly the entire cast, including Salman, Jacqueline, Bobby, Daisy and Saqib, along with the director Remo D'Souza and producer Ramesh Taurani were present for the screening. Salman Khan looked rather morose, while Jacqueline and Daisy were very cheery. Among the guests were Salman's Loveratri pair, Aayush Sharma and Warina Hussain, Varun Dhawan, Sonakshi Sinha, Tabu, Suneil Shetty, Pooja Hegde, Mouni Roy, Huma Qureshi, Sonu Sood, Shreyas Talpade, Kartik Aaryan and others.
