The final buyer of the Salman Khan film Race 3 will be confirmed on Monday. Race 3 has been made at a whopping budget of Rs 120 crore plus. Sources say that a Bollywood corporation, which is also listed on the New York Stock Exchange, could be the company that clinches the deal at a price of Rs 190 crore. Interestingly, one of Salman's earlier movies was also sold to the same company, and Salman is yet to be paid his dues to the tune of Rs 45 crore by the firm.
Now, when the company expressed its interest in buying off Race 3 from producer Ramesh Taurani, Salman who holds a majority stake in the film, stepped in the way.
“Salman has to recover around Rs 45 crore for the earlier film. And if the corporation has to clinch the deal, it needs to pay the balance amount as well, which it has not done so far,” says a source.
The trailer of Race 3, which will release on May 15, will also carry the name of the corporation backing the film, says our source.
