Mumbai: Actor Aamir Khan, who is playing a baddie in Dhoom 3, feels
that changing moral values in society have blurred the line demarcating
the good and evil on screen.
After success of Dhoom (2004) and Dhoom 2 (2006), there is already a
buzz going around about the third edition of the series. In the upcoming
instalment of Dhoom factory, Aamir is playing a negative character
opposite Katrina Kaif. "I think villains have moved out of our
scenarios. We don't have any villains anymore in our scripts by and
large. It's more of a social thing. At one time our society had a clear
moral view. So those people were the villains in our stories too. Mill
owners were the villains," Aamir told PTI.
The actor says the profile of villains on screen has undergone a sea
change over years and they are no more in-your-face baddies. ".....Then
it was smugglers, underworld, politicians. So society looked upon a
certain section and said that we don't like these people. Today, we
don't have such strong moral concepts. Being clever and opportunist is
not a bad thing anymore. We don't have black and white views and
moralities," he opined.
Dhoom series revolves around daredevil thefts, their cupid protagonists
and thrilling bike chase. Actors Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra will
reprise their roles as Jai and Ali in the third installment as well.
