A source close to the development had revealed to Mid-day, “Buzz is that the Hollywood hottie refused to do Dhoom 3 but recently chatted with Shah Rukh for a possible Bollywood debut. However, very recently, the actress expressed her desire to work with another Khan – Shah Rukh!”
“The producers (of Dhoom 3) were looking for an international face since some time, as this is touted to be the biggest film of the franchise till date. They were pretty convinced that they would be able to rope in one of the leading ladies from Hollywood to star opposite Aamir. In fact they had a few meetings with Heather’s managers, but for some reason things did not work out,” the source revealed to the tabloid.
Later, when Heather Graham met Shah Rukh Khan at the Goa film festival, she had told the media, “I am overwhelmed at this kind of welcome from India. I had heard a lot about Shah Rukh but did not realise he was so popular. We discussed a lot of things and I am eagerly waiting to see what can be worked out.”
Dhoom 3 stars Katrina Kaif, Tabrett Bethell, Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra among others, along with Aamir Khan.
