Here's why Sidharth Malhotra said NO to Race 3.

Sidharth Malhotra, who is currently excited for his latest release Ittefaq, revealed to a leading news agency the real reason why he said NO to Salman Khan's Race 3.

It is no secret that Salman's entry in Race 3 franchise makes the film bigger and better. There was buzz that Sid was to join the franchise but he said NO to it.

Well, Sid revealed that the reason he missed out on an opportunity to share screen space with Salman Khan in Race 3 due to date issues.

"There were talks earlier and nothing really culminated. Now, they have done their casting. I know Ramesh Taurani and Salman Khan and they are wonderful people to work with. Maybe (I will work with them) in the future if not this," Sidharth said.

"There were no creative differences. There were other things on my plate, so I couldn't shift things around to do that film. There was a time limitation, they are starting shoot right now and I couldn't do it. So we couldn't go ahead with it," he added.

"It would have been great to share screen space with Salman," Sid concluded.

Apart from Salman, it is Jacqueline who will be seen in the movie. An insider earlier told a leading daily, "Jacqueline has an interesting character in this thriller. She will be the one at the helm of things, who will be inspecting the whole situation, much like Abhishek Bachchan in the Dhoom series.

He is done with..Acting in Ittefaq getting very avg response...One more shitty project would have atleast helped with longevity of the career..Manoj and rest set of veteran actors will eat him up in Aiyaary too..He was pretty pathetic even in a simple OPPO Ad with DP..So this is it unless Kjo turns more benevolent

Yes! what happened is I got tired of waiting for a good performance from him.He has edged out the Deepika period of improvement by now.5 yrs and not a single movie u can say he stole the show or owned the movie.Even I used to think,since he is an outsider he needs time to adjust,carve his space and improve..But 5 years and still we are here..My threshold of patience is crossed..I can see why he could not perform well in a mess like BBD,but who told him to ruin emotional scenes in KnS? He was called the weakest link of the whole movie..Then zombie acting in Brothers and now Ittefaq trailer are enough to suffice my point..AG was one movie where his charisma made his character work but again he ruined its prospects with bad marketing strategies...Pls dont tell me he is not responsible for promotion..Even starkids like Varun,Arjun go all out for their movies..even more than the directors..so Sid's negligent and nonchalant attitude even after 2 big flops like BBD,Brothers is not a plus by any means..

Forget all of it..Look at the Oppo AD..He was BAD! I couldnt believe his unassuming and easy charm in HTP could not be revived in this simple AD.His expressions went kaput..looked so artificial while Deepika was a breath of fresh air as always..Sad!

I would still have given a chance if I was not put off this much by personal life shenanigans.But those are getting worse with each passing day.Dont wanna discuss it further...Have said many times how bad his PR is when it comes to Alia.Now this does not mean i will suddenly start stanning SSR or Varun.I cant still stand or will never be able to in future..So just gonna lay off BW,till they produce some new and promising talent..

Oh ok. I thought he was good in K&S. Agree about the personal life shenanigans; very off-putting.
I'm watching Ittefaq next week, but on the whole, I can't blame his fans or former fans for being frustrated.
