Bored with the way your R15 looks? Want to ‘modify’ it to make it look like something more exclusive but don’t have enough dough? Don’t mind a ‘jugaad’ of a mod-job?

The latest Dhoom 3 Trailer comes to your rescue if you replied in affirmative to all the above!

The latest trailer of Dhoom 3 is suddenly all over the cyber space and gives us a glimpse of the action that the upcoming Dhoom 3 promises to bring along. It also gives us a glimpse of a R15, which is trying a tad too hard to pass off as a BMW S1000RR! Yes, if you have a good look at the lead image (courtesy: Rushlane), it can be seen that while Abhishek and Uday have been shown riding a BMW S1000RR in the upper half of the image, they are seen perched upon a Yamaha YZF-R15 in the lower image. It is interesting to note the way the movie makers have tried to ‘camouflage’ the R15 to make it look like a S1000RR. Little do they seem to know that we know better than to fall for some really ‘cheap tricks’.

The new Theatrical Trailer

Taking into account that the Dhoom 3 is an ‘action packed’ movie, the producers probably resorted to using a R15 (Costs approx INR 1.2 lakhs) instead of the BMW S1000RR (Costs approx INR 20 lakhs) during some of the ‘more dramatic’ action shots, probably in a bid to keep the Beamer away from potential damage.

And the fact that both the riders have been shown WITHOUT a helmet means that the movie makers receive some more flak from us. There is no denying the fact that youngsters look up to these actors (and movies like Dhoom) and often resort to similarly crazy antics in a bid to mimic them.

Finally, before you may decide to try and advocate the stupid antics shown in the trailer, please relax, calm yourself a little and ask yourself- Is this what you really want a Made in Bollywood bike flick to be like?

 PS- Dhoom 3 release date- December 10

  1. Hardip, Indian knw how to criticize anything. Even in Hollywood movies also, the real stunts are not always been took on real machine. but these indian Media is always biased and so lack of knowledge.

  2. I absolutely agree with the Author and Rattle…if you’re making a “high budget Bollywood action blockbuster” at least do it right. It’s not about why they used fakes…. Everyone does that…even Hollywood, because there ain’t no point in destroying a perfectly good machine, especially something that costs a bomb. But at least try to make it look authentic and not like it was put together by a local mechanic down the street. As for Hardip Sing and supporters…I think its best you boys stay firmly buried deep within Bollywood. It seems like a win win for one and all. Period.
