Transcription
Older the revenge, the more dangerous it gets I'll make this hero run His horse will also be a hero He will bet the money He will also be the winner But, the moment he crosses the finish line... I'll make his victory mine You don't waste any time If one third of one's life is spend sleeping then why not do it with someone No one has ever dared to touch me like you just did Did I offend you? when did I say I was offended Patience is rewarding but eating my morning fruit is far more rewarding There's nothing greater than money for Arman Malik I'll make his life so miserable... ...that he'll be begging on the streets Because of me you will lose a good habit today The habit of escaping death The race always was and will remain mine... ...because I'm its oldest player

Reception
A critic from The Times of India rated the film two out of five stars and wrote that "All the characters fit the bill perfectly and the director did extract his pound of flesh from them but ultimately he tests the patience of the moviegoers as the film drags".[6] A critic from Idlebrain.com wrote that "Shot mostly in Thailand, this film has style quotient. However, the emotions and narration should have been better. The taking of film is amateurish and there is no compactness in direction".[7] A critic from fullhyd.com wrote that "On the list of lost causes, Race isn't in the same league as, say, Mythri. You still wouldn't want to spend two and a half hours watching it in a movie hall, or even in the comfort of your home".[8] On the contrary, a critic from Indiaglitz wrote that "Race, surprisingly, is a worthy watch. Watch out for the dialogue, the neat performances, the smart execution. But have ordinary expectations".[9]
