What they said
Source surprised at Mukerji's silence over false information
The source also expressed surprise at Mukerji's silence over the circulating rumors.
"I am surprised he hasn't issued a rebuttal to this fantasy report. Maybe he likes the idea of being known as the prospective director of the Dhoom franchise, no matter how far-fetched it may be."
They added, "Adi is keen to take the franchise forward. But he hasn't yet zeroed in on a story idea. So where is the question of Ayan or anyone else being roped in?"
