Yash Chopra8217;s just-out production Dhoom has reinvented masti in mud. So the beefy John Abraham and Thai pop diva Tata Young slosh through the muddiest bath we8217;ve seen in recent times, complete with a dash of S038;M.
Abraham8217;s brief was clear: The song8212;Dhoom, Dhoom, Come Light My Fire8212;would be divided in three stages.
With Abhishek Bachchan, Young would play coy. With Uday Chopra she would be naughty. But Abraham and the Thai sensation would hit the climax.
Even though the mud was 8216;8216;really slippery8217;8217;, Abraham had fun shooting. 8216;8216;It was like children playing in mud,8217;8217; he declares. But which child rips off his playmate8217;s clothes as Abraham does with Young?
Though the clothes stayed on in Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi, the song In The Night No Control featuring Akshay Kumar and Rekha was a scorcher. The duo splashed in soil and later we got a torrid glimpse of legs in a translucent shower cubicle. Producer Keshu reminisces, 8216;8216;It was something new. It was choreographer Ahmed Khan8217;s idea and it8217;s nice to see that we set a precedent.8217;8217;

There was also Anil Kapoor8217;s mud cake avatar in Nayak, but surely Kapoor would rather forget it8212;it was the least aesthetic thing we8217;d seen in a long time.
Frankly, there is no competition between Kumar, Abraham and Kapoor. We are talking strictly about their abs.
