/> Dhoom 2 has gone South. Or so it seems. Mumbai's Aryan Vaid is doing his first regional film. And it's in Kannada. Aryan plays Hrithik Roshan's part in the unofficial Dhoom 2 remake.

....Unofficial because Dubai Babu—that's the name of the apparent Dhoom 2 takeoff—has neither sought not got an official go-ahead from Yashraj Films.

While Abhishek Bachchan's part played by Kannada superstar Upendra is no longer that of a cop, Aryan Vaid confirms that all the other characters are almost in-character.

"My character is as flamboyant. But much meaner and far more coldblooded than Hrithik's. Ash's character is played by an actress called Nikita, while Uday Chopra's character is played by by a Kannada actor called Kumar Govind.

These are fairly well-known names of the Kannada film industry while Upendra of course is superstar and the director Naganna is top name in the Kannada industry, " reveals Aryan whose dancing skills were noticed by the wannabe Dhoom makers when he shared screen space with Rosa Catalano in the controversial film anti-MSN film Desh-drohi.

Aryan, replicating Hrithik's penchant for masquerades will be going through a series of disguises in the film.

"My get-ups are almost identical to Hrithik's. They signed me because they wanted a goodlooking villain, like Hrithik in Dhoom 2."

Interestingly this isn't the first Dhoom 2 ripoff in the South.. In Telugu they made it as Dubai Seenu and got away with it...much like Hrithik's character who gets away with all kinds of outrageous crime capers in Dhoom 2.
