Not Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan to play villain in Dhoom 4?
Dhoom is one of the most successful franchises of Bollywood. Having had the likes of John Abraham, Hrithik Roshan and Aamir Khan as antagonist in first three movies, the franchise is all set to rope in another superstar as villain in the fourth installment.
The movie, which is said to be titled Dhoom Reloaded, will see Shah Rukh Khan in a negative role. It is going to be a treat to see Shah Rukh essaying a bad guy in the movie. However, SRK was not the first choice for the movie, according to sources.
Aditya Chopra had earlier approached Salman Khan for the role, but the Dabang star turned down the offer, as he was not willing to play a negative character. Shah Rukh, meanwhile, has appeared in a negative role in various movies, including the Don.
“Shah Rukh has been approached by Chopra for Dhoom 4,” the source was quoted in the media. “Talks about dates and remuneration are on. Salman was approached before SRK, but he’s very clear right now about not playing a negative character.”
“Shah Rukh has done it in quite a few films before, so he has no reservations,” the source added. “Also, it’s not a baddie in the true sense of the word. Dhoom baddies are cool and stylish. It’s more in the Don space, which works for SRK.”
