A source said that Ranbir is just an “idea” at the moment, adding that “Yash Raj doesn’t have a script for Dhoom 4. They have been brainstorming over it for thirteen years, ever since Dhoom 3 was released.”
The tipster went on to say, “Aditya Chopra has rejected over nine drafts of the script. He isn’t venturing into his banner’s most prestigious franchise until absolutely certain about the script…Not after War 2 and Mardaani 3.”
“Right now he’s focussing entirely on Sanjay Bhansali’s Love & War and Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana. His last experience with Yash Raj, Shamshera, was a colossal disaster. He will only tread with utmost caution on that front,” the source mentioned.
To note, the Dhoom franchise was started with Dhoom in 2004.
It starred Abhishek Bachchan, Uday Chopra, Rimi Sen and Esha Deol with John Abraham playing the antagonist thief.
