Abhishek-Ash-John-Sikandar in A Car-Racing Flick

Sports films seem to be the flavour of the coming year. Beginning with Nisha Chainani's Mumbai Marathon in January which features Sammir Dattani as a marathon runner, Bollywood has a string of films based on games and sports lined up for release. Among them there’s Shimit Amin's Chak De (featuring Shah Rukh Khan as a hockey coach of a girls' team), Vivek Agnihotri's Goal (football flick with John Abraham) and Soham Shah's film .

If sporty is in, then flicks can't get sportier than debutant director Vicky Singh's Raaste, a sort of Dhoom-meets-Fast & Furious featuring Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai, John Abraham and Sikandar Kher, the film's main action converges on an international car race which will be shot at an unknown destination. The main cast, all featured in rugged avatars, are expected to train in the intricacies of car racing.
