YRF’s Dhoom is a popular action crime film franchise

Yash Raj Films (YRF) is the biggest production house in India. It is a film distribution, production, and direction production company run by Aditya Chopra, the chairman of the company. YRF owns two of the biggest movie franchises in India, the YRF Spy Universe and YRF Dhoom Franchise. We have been getting spy films from YRF Spy Universe frequently now. But it has been more than a decade since a film from the Dhoom franchise was released. The last film ‘Dhoom 3’ came in 2013 and now we are almost entering in 2025 with a major update on Dhoom 4.

 YRF Spy Universe

YRF Spy Universe is the most popular and most successful film franchise in India starring superstars like Salman Khan, Shahrukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan.

This franchise has produced large scale spy action films like

No doubt, YRF Spy Universe is getting huge love from fans. But what about the Dhoom franchise?

Dhoom 4

We are getting Dhoom 4. Yes! To the fans of this popular franchise, Dhoom 4 is coming soon.

Dhoom was released in 2004, Dhoom 2 in 2006, and Dhoom 3 in 2013.

Now after almost a decade, YRF has confirmed that Dhoom 4 is in the making. Dhoom 4 will have a completely new cast. Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra who were part of all Dhoom films won’t be part of Dhoom 4. Dhoom 4 will have a new director and a new creative, action, and stunt team now.

The first Dhoom film was released in 2004 with John Abraham playing the main antagonist. Hrithik Roshan essayed the role of the main antagonist in Dhoom 2 where Aamir Khan played the main antagonist in Dhoom 3. Among all Dhoom films, Aamir Khan’s Dhoom 3 is the highest-grossing film from the franchise despite receiving mixed reviews.

Now the big question is, who will be playing the main lead in Dhoom 4?

Ranbir Kapoor, the newest superstar in town has been signed to play the main lead in Dhoom 4.

YRF and Ranbir Kapoor collaborated on a film titled ‘Shamshera’ which was a huge box office bomb. But, following the massive success of ‘Animal’, Ranbir Kapoor has emerged as one of the biggest superstars of India. Animal has proved to be a career-changing film for him. Post Animal, Ranbir Kapoor has signed four to five big-budget Pan India films including Dhoom 4. On Ranbir Kapoor’s 42nd birthday this year, the YRF production house broke the sensational news of Ranbir singing the Dhoom 4 film.

Despite Animal receiving mixed reviews and generating endless controversies, it grossed over 900 crores globally. Ranbir Kapoor’s performance in Animal is labeled as one of the greatest performances in the history of Indian Cinema.

Currently, Dhoom 4 is in the pre-production stage and the shooting for the same will take several months to begin.

YRF is presently busing working on two upcoming spy films ‘War 2’ and ‘Alpha’. Both are scheduled to release in 2025 which means the shooting of Dhoom 4 will only begin in January 2026. Alpha stars Ranbir Kapoor’s wife Alia Bhatt as the female spy of YRF Spy Universe.

Ranbir Kapoor’s best friend Ayan Mukerji might direct Dhoom 4

Ayan Mukerji is a popular young director. He has directed films like ‘Wake Up Sid’, ‘Yeh Jaawani Hai Deewani’ and ‘Brahmashtra’. He is presently directing Hritik Roshan and Jr NTR’s ‘War 2’. If ‘War 2’ turns out to be a phenomenal movie and a big success, Ayan Mukerji will surely come on board to direct Dhoom 4.

As of now, Ranbir Kapoor is shooting for films like ‘Love And War’ and ‘Ramayana’. He will also reprise his role in Animal’s sequel movie titled ‘Animal Park’.

Earlier Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan were the frontrunners for Dhoom 4. But they are already doing spy films for YRF. Also, Ranbir Kapoor’s fan following and brand value have taken a major elevation. He is the most demanded and most loved actor presently. He is the perfect choice for Dhoom 4.

Besides Ranbir Kapoor, YRF is keen to bring in a few other big Bollywood actors to essay the role of cops and other important characters. Actresses Shraddha Kapoor and Kiara Advani are discussed to come on board to play the female lead.
