Race 4 producer Ramesh Taurani, during his interview with HT City, clarified whether Akshaye Khanna is a part of the movie. "No, we have not approached Akshaye. There was no scope at all," the producer shared. He confirmed that all news related to Akshaye Khanna's association with the upcoming movie is simply rumours and the actor's track has ended with the original film.
"There is no thought about getting him. His character gets into an accident in the first movie, his track ended there, and it will remain at that," Taurani clarified.
Even though there were hints that Saif Ali Khan and Sidharth Malhotra could be a part of Race 4, Ramesh Taurani refused to confirm the same. The producer emphasized that no cast member is confirmed yet since the focus is on the script itself.
Akshaye Khanna reportedly walked out of Ajay Devgn’s Drishyam 3. While Jaideep Ahlawat joined that project, there’s now reports that Akshaye Khanna has started shooting for his Telugu film debut. The actor is also unlikely to appear in Dhurandhar Part 2. He is officially yet to announce his next movie, but after the success of both Chhaava as well as Dhurandhar in 2025, Akshaye is among the actors that filmmakers hope to collaborate with.
