Aamir Khan says 'Dhoom 3' could’ve been better: “Aditya Chopra made a mistake..."

With high expectations. 'Dhoom 3' is surely one of the most underwhelming films of Aamir Khan and also the weakest among the 'Dhoom' series. Earlier, in a candid interview with Mashable India, actor Aamir Khan opened up about the original plotline of 'Dhoom 3' and why he believes the film could have been emotionally stronger.

According to Aamir, one key character—Sweety Dixit, Jai Dixit’s wife, played by Rimi Sen in the first two parts—was cut from the final version, a decision he called a “mistake” by producer Aditya Chopra and director Vijay Krishna Acharya.“Sweety’s Character Was Originally Central”Aamir revealed that the original script of 'Dhoom 3' began with Sweety asking Jai Dixit (played by Abhishek Bachchan) for a divorce, frustrated with her husband’s neglect.

“Dhoom 3 behtar ho sakti thi. Kyunki usme ek kirdaar tha—Jai Dixit ki wife Sweety—jo original script mein tha. Adi aur Victor ko laga woh zaroori nahi hai, toh nikaal diya. Mere hisaab se woh galti thi,” said Aamir. He felt the character added depth to Jai’s persona and could have given audiences an emotional entry point into the action-heavy film.A Missed Opportunity for Emotional ImpactExplaining the original storyline, Aamir said Sweety was tired of being forgotten—Jai would miss Karva Chauth, her birthday, and other important occasions due to his work.

To win her back, Jai would promise her a long-overdue honeymoon, but an urgent case in Chicago would interrupt their plans.At the airport, Jai would secretly meet the police commissioner to get case details. Instead of ditching his wife, the story would unfold with Sweety supporting Jai’s mission, urging him to finish the case before returning home. “It would’ve added heart to Jai’s otherwise rigid character,” Aamir said.About 'Dhoom 3'Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, 'Dhoom 3' hit the big screens on December 20, 2013. The expectations were quite high for the project, but it turned out to be a massive disappointment, especially due to the weak second half and climax.
