Race 3: Sidharth Malhotra reveals his reason for walking out of Salman Khan-starrer

Sidharth Malhotra's recent walk out from Salman Khan starrer Race 3 has came as a major surprise for everyone. While it was a big opportunity for Sidharth to share the screen space with superstar Salman, there have been reports that the Ek Villain actor left the movie owing to creative differences with the makers.

However, rubbishing the reports Sid stated that he was to let go Race 3 due to date issues.

"There were no creative differences. There were other things on my plate, so I couldn't shift things around to do that film. There was time limitation, they are starting shoot right now and I couldn't do it. So we couldn't go ahead with it," Sidharth was quoted as saying.

The young actor further asserted that while it would have been great if he would have been a part of Race 3 with Salman, he hopes to share the screen with Sultan star in the future.

"There were talks earlier and nothing really culminated. Now, they have done their casting. I know Ramesh Taurani and Salman Khan and they are wonderful people to work with. Maybe (I will work with them) in the future if not this," Sidharth added.

Notably, Race 3, which is the third instalment of Ramesh Taurani-produced 'Race' franchise, has got bigger in terms of casting.

Apart from Salman Khan, the movie will star Jacqueline Fernandez, Bobby Deol, Saqib Saleem, Daisy Shah, Freddy Daruwala in key roled. Race 3 will be helmed by Remo D'Souza and is expected to release on Eid 2018
