Ranbir Kapoor: 'I want to be in Dhoom 3'

Ranbir Kapoor has revealed that he is keen to become part of the Dhoom action franchise.

The actor said that he wants to be able to flex his muscles as an action hero for the first time, Hindustan Times has revealed.

He told the paper: "If another sequel to the Dhoom series is planned, I would love to be part of it.

"I hope that at some point I get an action film so that I can make a good body and put on some muscle. If I hit a villain it should look real."

Kapoor has mostly been seen in romances and youth films such as Wake Up Sid.

Dhoom spawned one sequel in 2006, two years after the original film about a motorcycle gang.

The 2004 movie starred John Abraham, Abhishek Bachchan and Esha Deol. The third instalment of the action series was announced in February this year, with Bachchan expected to take on his previous role.
