DHOOM:3 Shooting Begins May 2012 As Planned

Aamir Khan ‘Dhoom 3’ has been in the news right from the time it was launched. First it was the casting coup of having Aamir Khan as the baddie. Then came the suspense over the leading lady and after much speculation it was Katrina Kaif who walked away with the coveted offer. A few weeks ago it was reported that Yash Raj Films (YRF), the makers, had indefinitely postponed the film as Aamir Khan wanted to concentrate on other projects first.

However now YRF has come out with a clarification that states that the shooting of the film will start in May 2012 as scheduled and Aamir will join the sets in June.
Below is the official statement from YRF

It is unfortunate that without checking, a leading morning broadsheet irresponsibly declared that the shooting of DHOOM:3 had been indefinitely postponed and that it would be shot after Aamir Khan completes certain other future commitments.

This is absolutely baseless.

DHOOM:3 starts shooting in May 2012 and Aamir Khan joins the schedule in June as per plan.

Produced by Aditya Chopra, DHOOM:3 is written and directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, who had also written DHOOM & DHOOM:2.

Apart from Aamir Khan, who plays the anti-hero in the film, and Katrina Kaif, both Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra will continue in their now iconic roles of Jai Dixit and Ali.

The film is slated for a 2013 release.
