Ali Zafar to star in YRF’s Dhoom:3?

It has come to our attention that the Prince of Pop, Ali Zafar will soon play a key role in Dhoom:3, the third installment of the Indian action film series, which is being produced by Yash Raj Films.

Rumour has it that Aditya Chopra, the producer of the film has been so impressed by Ali Zafar who is currently working in his movie Mere Brother Ki Dulhan opposite Katrina Kaif that a possibility has risen that he will cast Ali in a key role in Dhoom:3, reports TOI.

Ali, whose Tere Bin Laden, scored overwhelming response has at least read 40 scripts post his debut film success in Bollywood. Rumour also has it that Ali Zafar has become very pally with Aditya Chopra and considers him a guide in Tinseltown.

Dhoom 3 which will be directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya (Victor), will feature Aamir Khan playing a negative character while Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra will reprise their previous roles.

The film would go on floors at the end of 2011 and is slated for a December (Christmas) 2012 release.
Aamir Khan is very keen on playing a villain in the film and says that the script is really amazing. He said,

“Victor’s script really won me over and I look forward to working with him.”

Yash Chopra, the founder of Yash Raj Films adds,

“Dhoom: 3 is possibly one of the best scripts coming out of our production house.”

If the rumours are true then it would be a great opportunity for the Prince of Pop to make his mark on the Indian film industry and to learn something from Aamir Khan who is known by the title ‘The Perfectionist’.
