Salman Khan Conviction: ‘Race 3’ Team’s S Africa Shoot Cancelled
The ‘Race 3’ team will not be shooting in South Africa after Salman Khan’s conviction.
The final schedule of Salman Khan’s currently under production Race 3 had to be modified because the actor has been barred from travelling abroad by the Jodhpur court. According to a report in MidDay, the climax of Race 3 was to be shot in South Africa but this shoot has been now called off. Salman was granted bail by the District and Sessions court in Jodhpur in the blackbuck poaching case a week ago, the court had also ordered that the actor cannot travel out of India without its permission. The team of Race 3 will now be shooting in Leh instead.
This is not the only change in the Race 3 shooting schedule. Earlier, the South Africa shoot was to be followed by a Mumbai schedule, however, now the makers are finishing the Mumbai part of the shoot first to save on time. The Leh schedule will be shot towards the end of April.
The report confirms that Race 3 director Remo D’Souza has said that he will be flying out to Leh with the actors of the film for a period of 10 days. A song will now be shot in Leh which was apparently supposed to be shot in a foreign locale. Apart from Salman Khan, Race 3 also stars Anil Kapoor, Jacqueline Fernandez, Bobby Deol and Daisy Shah in important roles. The film is scheduled to release on 15 June.
