    Mumbai: The much-anticipated fourth installment of Yash Raj Films’ iconic Dhoom franchise is set to bring a fresh face to the screen, and it’s none other than Bollywood’s heartthrob, Ranbir Kapoor. Fans of the franchise, which has delivered massive hits with its previous three parts, have been eagerly awaiting updates on Dhoom 4 since Dhoom 3 released in 2013. Recent reports had speculated that Akshay Kumar might take on the lead role, but it’s now confirmed that Ranbir Kapoor will be the star of the show.

    Ranbir Kapoor: The New Anti-Hero

    Ranbir Kapoor, who recently delivered a box office smash with Animal at the end of 2023, is reportedly all set to join the Dhoom franchise as the anti-hero. Animal was a major success, raking in an impressive ₹917 crore globally. Ranbir’s portrayal of an anti-hero in that film has positioned him as the perfect choice for the lead in Dhoom 4. In previous installments, the anti-hero roles were played by John Abraham, Hrithik Roshan, and Aamir Khan, each bringing their unique flair to the characters. Ranbir is expected to continue this legacy with his own distinctive style.

    Shahrukh Khan Was Once Considered

    Interestingly, earlier plans for Dhoom 4 included the possibility of casting Shahrukh Khan in the lead role. However, with Shahrukh already committed to another Yash Raj Films project, Pathan 2, the studio decided to move forward with Ranbir Kapoor. This decision aligns with YRF’s strategy of introducing different anti-heroes in each installment of the franchise, as seen in the previous three films.

    Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra to Return as Cops

    While the anti-heroes change with each film, one constant in the Dhoom series has been the duo of Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra, who play the roles of cops. Fans can expect to see them reprise their roles in Dhoom 4 as well. The dynamic between the cops and the anti-hero has always been a key element of the franchise, and this new film is expected to continue that tradition.

    Script and Production Timeline

    Reports suggest that the makers are currently in the process of finalizing the script for Dhoom 4. Production is likely to begin within the next two years, with a tentative start in 2026. This timeline coincides with Ranbir Kapoor’s commitment to the sequel of Animal, tentatively titled Animal Park. The excitement around Dhoom 4 is palpable, and fans are eager to see how Ranbir will bring his own touch to the iconic franchise.

    The Dhoom Franchise: A Box Office Juggernaut

    The Dhoom series has been a massive success at the box office, with each installment outperforming the last. The first Dhoom film was a superhit, earning ₹47.7 crore worldwide. Dhoom 2 upped the ante with a global collection of ₹149.98 crore. However, it was Dhoom 3 that truly set the franchise apart, with a staggering worldwide gross of ₹556.74 crore, making it the first Indian film to cross the ₹500 crore mark globally.

    With Dhoom 4 on the horizon, expectations are sky-high. The combination of Ranbir Kapoor’s star power and the proven success of the Dhoom franchise is likely to create another blockbuster hit for Yash Raj Films. Fans can only wait with bated breath to see how the next chapter in this thrilling series unfolds.
