Bobby Deol has joined the cast of Salman Khan’s “Race 3” and the actor is excited about the project.

Bobby, who made a comeback to big screen with recently released film “Poster Boys”, took to Twitter to thank Ramesh Taurani for welcoming him to the “Race” franchise.

“Let’s race along @RameshTaurani… It feels great to be a part of the team!! #Race3,” the 50-year-old actor wrote.

Taurani had earlier tweeted, “Welcome to the family #BobbyDeol @BeingSalmanKhan @Asli_Jacqueline #Race3 #Eid2018”.

Apart from Salman and Bobby the third installment in the “Race” franchise also features Jacqueline Fernandez.

While Salman, 51, has replaced Saif Ali Khan as the lead in the action-thriller, Jacqueline is not new to the franchise. She starred in the 2013’s “Race 2”.

Abbas-Mustan directed the first two films, but Remo D’ Souza will helm the third movie.
