We all waited for it - Dhoom 2. While the film is all set to release this November, the first trailer of the film makes your wait more raring.

As Yash Chopra's name flashes onscreen, the trailer opens with the background voiceover of a news reporter reading out about a major diamond robbery and what's next on this big burglar's agenda?

A money train races across a deserted land.
And this thief is roller-skating behind.
That's Hrithik Roshan for you - the center of attraction of this reloaded action ride

As the reworked version of the title track plays, the other lead characters are introduced.
Abhishek Bachchan as the smart cop
Aishwarya Rai in a slim and slick avatar
Uday Chopra going shirtless
and
Bipasha Basu in the Lara Croft getup

They are back in action.
Yea, in literal sense! The action just gets bigger and better. More gadgets and gizmos. Slicker automobiles. And Hrithik roller-skating with remarkable elan, throughout.

While a bikini clad Bipasha sizzles onscreen, Aishwarya doesn't exactly get in the bikini mode (as was largely speculated) but her two piece costume is as good as one.

The basic theme track is retained. So is the movie logo font.

"Tumse milke bahut mazaa aayega.
I think we will have more fun", says Abhishek pointing towards Hrithik
And from what appears from the trailers, even the audiences will be saying the same.

The only line that Hrithik utters in the trailer is the last one, "Game's not over" as he glides down with Aishwarya Rai from a deep cliff.

We are looking forward to this game...
