His character, Ranvir Singh, is the face of the Race franchise and Saif Ali Khan could still be a part of Race 3. But, following financial differences, another project, being helmed by Ramesh Taurani, may not work out with Saif in the lead.
The film, to be directed by Mohit Suri, was supposed to roll in mid-2014. But buzz is, differences have cropped up over money matters between the actor and the filmmaker.
According to a source close to the development, the bone of contention was a difference of Rs 6 crore. Saif wanted Rs 16 crore as his remuneration but Taurani was ready to pay just Rs 10 crore, plus a percentage profit subject to realization.
Saif could still continue with the Race series despite the fallout of sorts. “Mohit’s film and Race 3 are two different films with different budgets. So, not doing one film may not cost Saif the other,” said the source.
