For a long time we are hearing that the makers of the “Dhoom” franchise are planning to make the fourth movie of the series but there was no clarity on this matter. There were some rumours which suggested that Ranbir Kapoor is being considered for the role of villain in the film and today, on Ranbir’s 42nd birthday, there are reports which claim that Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor is all set to headline “Dhoom 4”.
What’s more is that the action-packed franchise, produced by Yash Raj Films and helmed by Aditya Chopra, will see a reboot with Ranbir taking center stage and unlike the previous films, Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra will not reprise their roles.
This will be Ranbir’s 25th movie as an actor and it promises to be one of the biggest ventures in the “Dhoom” series. A source revealed that discussions with Ranbir had been ongoing for a while. The actor showed interest in the project after hearing the basic concept and now he’s officially on board. The report further stated that Aditya Chopra firmly believes that Ranbir Kapoor is the ideal choice for carrying the “Dhoom” legacy forward.
The upcoming film will feature two younger actors who will play the duo of cop buddies central to the story. According to reports, “Dhoom 4” is positioned to be a major tent pole film with global appeal, aiming to elevate Indian cinema to new heights.
The Dhoom franchise has been a huge success since its inception in 2004. The first part starred John Abraham and Esha Deol, while Hrithik Roshan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Bipasha Basu joined the second. The third installment featured Aamir Khan and Katrina Kaif and it became a box-office success after its release in 2013.
With Ranbir Kapoor now leading the fourth part, expectations from “Dhoom 4” are sky-high, are you excited?
