Actor Anil Kapoor has joined the cast of the third installment of Race 3 starring superstar Salman Khan.

Salman on Friday shared a photograph of himself along with Anil and producer Ramesh Taurani holding hands with each other. 

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.

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.
