After playing the lead roles in 2016 film Baaghi, Tiger Shroff and Shraddha Kapoor are all set to return with the third instalment of the successful action franchise. Baaghi 3, which is slated release to on March 6, 2020, will see Tiger return as the much-loved character of Ronnie. While the fans are excited to see Tiger and Shraddha on the silver screen again, there's a new addition to the Baaghi 3 cast and it's none other than Riteish Deshmukh. As per a report in a leading daily, Tiger and Riteish will play brothers in the film. 

Producer Sajid Nadiadwala confirmed the news to us, “Riteish has always been a part of my Housefull franchise and now joins the Baaghi clan as well. Baaghi 3 will be my sixth film with him after Heyy Babyy and four instalments of Housefull. We share a great relationship and it was a pleasure writing Lai Bhaari (Riteish’s 2014 Marathi action-drama) for him.”

Incidentally, Riteish is reuniting with Ek Villain co-star Sidharth Malhotra in Milap Zaveri’s Marjaavaan. Now with him joining Baaghi 3, he will be reuniting with his other co-star from the film, Shraddha. Meanwhile, Tiger will soon start prep for the action sequences and begin reading sessions with Shraddha and Riteish closer to the shooting date of August. Apparently, the team was on a recce in Egypt, Serbia, Turkey and Morocco to finalise the locations.

On the work front, Riteish will also be seen in Housefull 4, apart from Marjaavaan and Baaghi 3.
