Pritam to compose for ‘Dhoom 3′

MUMBAI - After giving memorable music in “Dhoom” and “Dhoom 2″, Pritam Chakraborty has again been roped in to compose for the third movie in the popular franchise by Yash Raj Films. The composer is quite thrilled about the association.

“It’s always great working with YRF and even more so on something as iconic as ‘Dhoom’. It is a great feeling that the music has lived on with the franchise and the two are inseparable. ‘Dhoom machaenge’ once more,” Pritam said in a press statement.

Pritam, who is also popular for his soulful as well as peppy numbers in films like “Jab We Met”, “Life In A…Metro” and “Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai”, was an obvious choice for “Dhoom 3″, says director Vijay Krishna Acharya a.k.a. Victor.

Pritam is not just a chart-blazing music director but an integral part of the ‘Dhoom’ series. Its going to be super working with him, he said.

“Dhoom 3″ will feature Aamir Khan as the baddie. John Abraham and Hrithik Roshan respectively had essayed the role of a smart thief in the first and second movie of the franchise.

Actors Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra will be seen once again in the movie as inspector Jai Dixit and Ali respectively.

Produced by Aditya Chopra, “Dhoom 3″ will be ready for a 2012 Christmas release.
