It stated, “If you remember, the climax of ‘Dhoom‘ was open-ended. There was no clarity on whether John’s character in the film was dead or had he escaped. This uncertainty could be used, to see him make a return to the ‘Dhoom‘ franchise.
It is pertinent to mention that the rumours of the casting for ‘Dhoom 4‘ has started. Prolific stars with the likes of Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan, daughter of legendary actor Dharmendra Esha Deol and the wife of Abhishek Bachchan, who plays the main role of Assistant Commissioner of Police Officer Jai Dixit, have worked in the series.

“Earlier this year John Abraham broke the mould with his performance in the Shah Rukh Khan starrer ‘Pathaan‘. His rendition of the main villain certainly created waves, and the audience too loved his performance. So if Yash Raj Films is looking to cast him yet again in a negative role it will come as no surprise,” the source said.
