MUMBAI: The fact that Tips’ last year’s film Race is being taken forward to develop into a sequel, is known to all. However, what is not known until now is the actors that will be a part of the sequel.
While Race starred Saif Ali Khan, Akshaye Khanna, Anil Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, Bipasha Basu and Sameera Reddy; the sequel will only retain Saif Ali Khan and Anil Kapoor in the cast. Apart from them, all other actors will be replaced, and now there are reports on Kareena Kapoor being roped in for a role.
Tips’ Ramesh Taurani says, “Currently we are working on developing a suitable plot for the sequel of Race. The sequel will surely have Saif and Anil. Since Akshaye and Katrina’s track ended in the previous films only they will not be a part and all others will be replaced by new actors as the plot will be different this time.”
When queried whether director duo Abbas Mastan will direct this sequel, Taurani says, “Our first option is Abbas Mastan, but we all will take a final call after the script is ready.”
The film will be ready to go on floors by this year end.

Anil Kapoor too could have been avoided. And I am sad that Kareena will feature in Race sequel. She looks lame whatever her role may be.

I shall be surprised if this one betters it’s predecessor which was a crap fest.

I have the same guilt that rks has, of liking Race. Though I have to confess that I get these guilt pangs more often than rks.
The every minute twist and turn ensured that I was glued to the screen.

i hear even Fellini liked Race. He saw Ghajini/CCTC and wrote that piece about ‘Death of Cinema’
