Producer Ramesh Taurani is preparing a Race Reboot in 2025, while Saif Ali Khan would be returning to the Race Franchise as per a report by Pinkvilla. While Race 4 is already under way at TIPS, the report added that Saif Ali Khan and Ramesh Taurani are talking about making another feature film.
Saif Ali Khan is reportedly in negotiations for the official adaptation of Nani’s 2019 blockbuster, Gang Leader, according to people familiar with the situation. “Ramesh Taurani has acquired the rights to remake Gang Leader in Hindi and has initiated conversation with Saif Ali Khan to play the lead. Saif too has shown his interest, and is awaiting to hear the reworked version of the film for Hindi. The makers are presently working to adapt the screenplay in Hindi and a narration shall take place in December,” said a source.
The source as quoted by Pinkvilla further added “While the antagonist turn requires an actor with a suave personality, the casting for female leads is challenging as the script demands actors from all age groups – from 10 years to 80 years – to come on board”.
The source stated, “The idea is to take Gang Leader remake on floors right after Race 4, sometime in the second half of 2025, however, the schedules could change depending on the timelines and logistics of the franchise.”
In addition to Race 4 and Gang Leader, Ramesh Taurani is producing Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, directed by David Dhawan and starring Varun Dhawan, Pooja Hegde, and Mrunal Thakur. The movie will hit the theaters on October 2, 2025.
