Since Yash Raj Films is the first to release in the IMAX format, all arrangements for a perfect trailer launch has been made. Even the production house went on to employ tight security measures for the event to avoid any prior leaks and lapses, reported The Times of India.

Even the final cut of the trailer was shown to Aamir in person and not sent to him via other means.

"Dhoom 3" is slated to release on 20 December and with its trailer out, the Aamir starrer is pegged to give tough competiton to Hrithik Roshan's upcoming film "Krrish 3".
