The action-thriller franchise directed by Remo D’Souza is one of the most intriguing films of the year. The entire star cast (except Anil Kapoor and Jacqueline Fernandez) is changed. The iconic duo of Abbaz-Mustan is no longer behind the camera as the director of the film and it has Salman Khan essaying the role of the lead actor. There are many reasons to watch this film, be it Salman’s action packed avatar, the style quotient in the film or Remo’s direction. But most importantly, it’s Race 3, one of the coolest action-thriller franchise of Bollywood. And what would be better than to release a Salman film on the occasion of Eid. Race 3 is scheduled to release on Eid 2018.

2.0

The magnum opus, starring Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar in the lead roles, is an upcoming sci-fi film scheduled to release in April 2018. The film is a sequel to the Blockbuster Tamil film Enthiran, which starred Rajinikanth as a humanoid robot. 2.0 is one of the most anticipated films of 2018 and also one of the most expensive films ever. The film has sparked media attention for its casting, VFX and CGI technology and music, which is composed by maestro AR Rahman. If the sources are accurate then this superhero film is all set to clash with Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War, a Hollywood superhero film. Well it will be a mega clash if these two films meet at the box office.
