Is Aditya Chopra planning to direct ‘Dhoom 4’ next?

Everyone was very excited when Aditya Chopra announced ‘Befikre’ starring Vaani Kapoor and Ranveer Singh. But the film bombed on the big screen unlike his other films, ‘Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge’ and ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’.

A trade expert explained it to a leading daily by 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. 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!”

An industry insider also mentioned, “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?”

We hope Adi Chopra comes back with a bang!
