The trailer of the Salman Khan starrer Race 3 that was released recently has garnered the attention of film buffs in a big way. But Tollywood fans have a complaint against its makers. According to Prabhas’ fans, the trailer has scenes that seem to be lifted from the Baahubali star’s upcoming film Saaho.
The teaser for Saaho was released last year along with Baahubali: The Conclusion and it had Prabhas wearing a gliding suit and jump off a skyscraper. The Race 3 trailer also shows Salman Khan wearing a similar gliding suit and this has set tongues wagging about the similarities between the Saaho teaser and the Race 3 trailer. Reports say that the similarities between these two films do not end there, as Race 3’s stunt sequences were shot in Abu Dhabi and the Saaho team is currently stationed in the same place to can the action block.
Race 3, which is part of the hit Bollywood Race franchise, is an action thriller that is being directed by Remo D’Souza and produced by Ramesh S Taurani and Salman Khan under the banners Salman Khan Films and Tips Films. The film stars Salman Khan in the lead role with Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Jacqueline Fernandez, Daisy Shah and Saqib Saleem in the star cast. The film is set to release on June 15 this year as a Ramzan special.
The background score for Race 3 has been composed by Salim Sulaiman while the songs have been composed by an ensemble of musicians: JAM8, Meet Bros, Vishal Mishra, Vicky Raja and Shivay Vyas. Ayananka Bose has worked on the camera while the editing is done by Rameshwar S Bhagat.
On the other hand, the shooting for Saaho is currently going on and the film is expected to hit the marquee later this year or early next.
