In a statement, Yashraj Films described as a 'fabricated concoction' the story appearing in this morning's edition of a newspaper which said that ''Aditya Chopra to direct Dhoom 3- and that Shah Rukh Khan is playing a pivotal role in the movie.

''While the least one expects is that news be checked with us before going to print, it is utterly astonishing and nonsensical that despite a clear SMS, as well as a personal phone call, denying that the story was untrue, an irresponsible journalist still chose to carry a fabricated concoction. And that too by choosing to start the article by saying 'it's official now!','' the statement from Yashraj said.
