Akshay Kumar confirmed for Dhoom 4?

It was speculated last year that Akshay Kumar has been approached to play the antagonist in Dhoom 4. Though producers Yash Raj Films had denied the rumours at the time, it looks like Akshay has finally been confirmed for the forthcoming instalment. 

On Monday, trade analyst Atul Mohan tweeted, “A highly placed source has revealed that Akshay Kumar has been confirmed for Dhoom 4. Let's wait for an official announcement soon."

In a statement last year, YRF had refuted Akshay’s involvement with the project, saying the film is yet to enter development. “Dhoom is an extremely important franchise for us but currently, we do not have an idea or script for Dhoom 4. We are always available to clarify any and all queries, and strongly urge and request you to kindly double-check stories with us well in advance for us to be able to provide you with all accurate facts,” the statement read. 

Meanwhile, Salman Khan and Ranveer Singh have also been rumoured to play the villain in Dhoom 4. Who would you like to see next in the blockbuster franchise?
