Aamir Khan is villain in Dhoom 3

It's official! TOI has learnt from the horses mouth that Aamir Khan will be the villain in Dhoom:3.

Spearheaded by Aditya Chopra, the movie will be directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya (Victor). Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra will continue in their much loved roles of Jai Dixit and Ali. The film will begin shooting end of this year and is slated for a 2012 Christmas release. When contacted, Aamir said, "It is indeed a pleasure to be working with Yashji and Adi again. Dhoom is a great franchise, most entertaining and full of fun. Everytime I hear the theme tune of Dhoom it brings a swing to my step. Victor's script really won me over and I look forward to working with him."

Speaking about Dhoom:3, Yash Chopra adds, "It's a great pleasure to have Aamir working with our banner. I am terribly excited with what an actor like Aamir can bring to the Dhoom franchise with his unique star power and level of performance. Adi and Victor have worked over a year to bring out, what I can now confidently say, is possibly one of the best scripts coming out of our production house."

Aamir Khan-Farah Khan joining hands

Aamir Khan and Farah Khan will be working together after almost a decade. Choreographer-turned-filmmaker Farah is going back to her roots by choreographing a song for Delhi Belly. When asked if she was moving back to full-time choreography, she said "Not at all!”

She is only choreographing Delhi Belly because Aamir asked her to. She only choreographs for her friends, her husband Shirish Kunder and her brother Sajid Khan she said. Delhi Belly is a sex comedy, which has Aamir’s nephew Imran Khan in it.

Aamir specifically wanted Farah to choreograph nephew Imran’s song because he wanted her to recreate the same magic she did years back in his movie Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar’s mega hit song “Pehla Nasha”. In case you did not know, 'Pehla Nasha' was Farah’s first ever choreography and since then, she has worked only twice with Aamir, once in Sarfarosh and once in Dil Chahta Hai.

Aamir Khan meets Sir Anthony Hopkins in Toronto

Aamir Khan, who was in Toronto last week where his wife Kiran Rao's directorial debut Dhobi Ghat played at the international film festival, has another reason to be very happy.

He met the legendary Sir Anthony Hopkins who was also at the festival for his film You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger.

The Bollywood superstar is a big fan of the Hollywood actor who has starred in cult classics like The Silence of The Lambs, Legend of the Fall, The World's Fastest Indian and Hannibal.

Says a source, "Aamir and Sir Anthony chatted about films. They spent a lot of time together. The Hollywood giant even expressed a desire to see Dhobhi Ghat."

What did Aamir do when introduced to Sir Anthony? Says the source, "They shook hands." Reason we asked was that at the Golden Globes in 2009, the same Sir Anthony was bowled over when our Anil Kapoor (there to receive acclaim for Slumdog Millionnaire) bent down to touch his feet on stage. It is, well, a 'touching' Indian custom meant to show respect to seniors, but not something the Hollywood legend was familiar with. Sir Anthony, startled by Anil's gesture, leaped a foot back!

I want to work with Aamir again: Kareena Kapoor

After cooking up a crackling chemistry with Aamir Khan in the blockbuster 3 Idiots, actress Kareena Kapoor says she wants to team up with him once again. "I want to work with Aamir, but he is not doing any film for a year," Kareena lamented. She is very keen that her actor boyfriend Saif Ali Khan should work with 3 Idiots director Rajkumar Hirani.

"I always tell him (Saif) that he should work with Raju Hirani," she added.

Kareena will soon be seen in Karan Johar's We Are Family alongside Kajol and Arjun Rampal. The film releases on Friday.

Aamir Khan & Shahrukh Khan Friends Forever


Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan are friends again. The rumors were that Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan the biggest rivals of each other. Recently, Aamir Khan apologized to Shah Rukh Khan. Aamir Khan’s fault was to call his wife Kiran as “KKKK…..Kiran” in front of media. This is a famous dialogue by Shah Rukh Khan in the famous movie “Darr” in 1993.

This offended Shah Rukh Khan and said that he did not get angry or hurt. Shah Rukh Khan said that he will personally talk and sort out their problems. Aamir realized that he has done something wrong and did not waste any time.Aamir Khan apologized to Shah Rukh Khan’s children. Not to Shah Rukh Khan but to his kids! Shah Rukh said that he did not have to apologize to him. Now Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan are friends again. They are mostly seen together these days. Either Aamir Khan is visiting Shah Rukh’s house or the opposite. The two Khans blamed the media to make this trivial thing to a big issue between the two.

Aamir Khan said while working with Rajkumar Hirani’s “3 idiots” that the three Khans are the “3 idiots”. The three Khans are Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan. Now they have sorted out all their problems and Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan are friends again. Next is what? Shah Rukh Khan is sorting out with Salman Khan?
