'Befikre' Director Aditya Chopra To Regain His Midas Touch With Dhoom 4?

Aditya Chopra whose last movie Befikre was heavily panned by the critics, might take up Dhoom 4 as his next project to come back on the track.

Aditya Chopra's last film Befikre starring Ranveer Singh and Vaani Kapoor created a stir in Bollywood for its bold take on modern-day relationships. Another reason why the film became the talk of the town was the fact that Adi opted for Ranveer Singh as the lead hero than his all-time favourite Shah Rukh Khan. Unfortunately, the film fizzled at the box office unlike Adi's previous films - be it Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge or the superhit Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi.

A DNA report quoted a trade analyst saying, "Well, definitely 'not reinvent' himself. He has had enough of that with Befikre. Clearly, Aditya Chopra is a brand and what audience expects is nothing, but unadulterated family fun with loads of entertainment. No one knows what really prompted him to try something like Befikre, which was neither entirely original (considering its similarities with Tamasha and Ae Dil Hai Mushkil), nor supremely entertaining. The biggest problem here was lack of content for family audiences. Now that's not what you expect when someone like Adi Chopra makes a film after eight long years."

An industry insider further added, "Aditya is too huge a Bollywood veteran to let one Befikre make him take a step back. As a matter of fact, what he needs to do next is instantly sprint ahead and deliver a biggie. What better way to do that than to pick up Yash Raj Films' biggest franchise, Dhoom?"

Dhoom series has always been known for its starcast. Sometime back there were rumours about Salman Khan being approached to play the anatgonist. It would be quite interesting to see if Sallu agrees to come on board to play the villain.

The trade analyst further continued, "As for the leading lady, don't be surprised if Aditya's current favorite Vaani Kapoor makes the cut. Given her current looks and styling, it won't be surprising if she ends up bagging a spot of one of the heroines in Dhoom: 4!"

Guess we will have to wait for sometime to unfold the mystery!
