Quoting a source close to the development, the publication reported, “While Ramesh Taurani has got a team of in-house writers to develop the basic plot of Race 4, he has outsourced it to some of the seasoned writers and directors to develop it into a screenplay.”

“While the writing work is on, he has initiated conversations with Sidharth Malhotra to play the leading man of Race 4 alongside Saif Ali Khan,” disclosed the insider. “Sid is a big fan of Race Franchise and is interested in doing the film.”

“Staying true to the world of this franchise, the Race franchise is getting a reboot with a face-off between Saif and Sid. It’s a pure two-hero film, with both the characters having shades of grey,” the person teased further.

Reportedly, both actors will sign the dotted lines later this year, after hearing the narration of the final script, whereas, filming is expected to begin in 2025.
