"Inke Aane se 'Race 3' ka cast aur ho gaya jhakaas Anil Kapoor, Ramesh Taurani. 'Race 3'. (With him joining the 'Race 3', the cast has become more awesome)," Salman captioned the image.

This is not the first time Salman and Anil will share screen space. The two have previously worked in movies like "Biwi No.1", "No Entry", "Yuvvraaj" and "Salaam-e-Ishq: A Tribute to Love".

Race 3 marks Anil's return to the Race franchise as the actor had earlier played a pivotal part in the previous installments of the film.

The first two installments of Race showcased Anil playing the role of a light-hearted police officer.

Taurani also posted an image and captioned it: "Picture agar 'Race' ho, toh yeh kaise na ho Anil Kapoor (If the film is Race, then how can he not be a part of it). He's coming back to the 'Race'."

Race 3 is being directed by Remo D'Souza and is co-produced by SKF Films and Tips. The film is slated to release on Eid next year.
