Ever since the release of the second part Sarkar Raj back in 2008, a third part has always been in the news. As the second ended in the demise of Abhishek Bachchan. Amitabh Bachchan's character Sarkar, calling for his eldest son's (Kay Kay Menon) son, Chiku. There were several reports of how film's gonna center around Chiku's rise to power under the guidance of Sarkar himself. But the news soon died down, as Ram Gopal Varma went on to deliver flops after flops for some reason and moved to Telugu films. But now he finally has shifted his base to Bollywood with Veerappan released earlier this year and announced Sarkar 3. Yesterday, RGV took to Twitter to announce the star cast of this much awaited political thriller. In a series of tweets, he, in his usual self, revealed the cast and the characters they'll be playing. He however mentioned how Abhishek Bachchan's character Shankar Nagre (who dies in the second part) and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's character (who takes over as Sarkar, towards the end of the film) won't be part of the film. Ram Gopal Varma reveals the reason for this, he tweets, "Both Abhishek and Aishwarya are not there in Sarkar 3 as this story is set in another time and another situation," Also Read - When Abhishek Bachchan openly mocked Salman Khan, Vivek Oberoi over their alleged fight; don’t miss Preity Zinta’s jibe [Watch video]

Another antagonist in the film played by Rohini Hattangadi.

Bharat Dhabolkar as Gorakh Rampur

Bharat Dhabolkar was seen as a minister in Company and main villain in John Abraham's Karam. "Bharat Dabholkar plays a vicious two faced guy in Sarkar 3", tweeted RGV.
