Aamir in Dhoom 3 Sequel plays villain

--- Economic Times ---

After John Abraham and Hrithik Roshan, it is Aamir Khan’s turn to play the baddie in Yash Raj’s superhit franchise Dhoom.

Both Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra will reprise their roles of Jai Dixit and Ali.

It is Aamir’s second film with the banner after Fanaa, where he played a terrorist.

“Dhoom is a great franchise, most entertaining and full of fun. Everytime I hear the theme tune of Dhoom it brings a swing to my step,” Aamir said in a statement.

“YRF is really pinning its hopes on Aamir. They need a blockbuster. Not just for the monetary benefits, but to make the point that YRF still rules the roost. Initially, there was a tough choice between Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan for Dhoom 3.,” said a source.

The movie is slated for a 2012 Christmas release.
