After Sanjay Dutt walked out of Indra Kumar's directorial franchise and third instalment of 'Dhamaal', the makers of the film have finally found a replacement to the character and it's none other than the 'Singham' himself.

As per latest reports, Ajay Devgn will also co-produce 'Total Dhamaal' along with Indra Kumar and Ashok Thakeria.

A source also said, that the actror went ROFL while listening to the script of the flick. However, he had one-condition before signing it officially, that the humour should be clean and should not be below the belt.

One of the interesting fact about the film is that this would be first time in seven years that Ajay will not be paired opposite any actress. It was Prakash Jha's political drama 'Raajneeti' when he wasn't paired with any female lead.

Apart from Ajay Devgn, 'Total Dhamaal' will also feature Anil Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit Nene after a long gap of 17 years. The Jodi was last seen together in 'Pukar' which was released in the year 2000.

The rest of the cast of 'Dhamaal' has been retained in the third instalment, therefore, the gang of Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Aashish Chaudhary and Jaaved Jaaferi will be seen again in 'Total Dhamaal'.

'Total Dhamaal' is all set to go on floor from January 2018 and will be released later in the year.
