Do Dishoom & Dhoom Have Any Similarities?

At the trailer launch of the film, when asked about the similarities with Dhoom and if Dishoom can also be made into a successful franchise like Dhoom, Varun said: “This is nothing like Dhoom, but because John was in the first Dhoom, I think he should answer why it is different.”

“When I heard the script of Dishoom, the first thing that I told Sajid (Nadiadwala) and Rohit (Dhawan) was that Dishoom will go up to Dishoom 8 because this is a very young, action adventure franchise. Kabir and Junaid (their characters) will find new problems, new issues and move to different places. It’s going to be fun. It’s a great franchiable film,” John said.

John’s Dhoom was one of his biggest hits, and the franchise grew bigger with superstars like Hrithik Roshan and Aamir Khan taking it on a higher level with Dhoom 2 and Dhoom 3, respectively.

John’s character in the film is also named Kabir like it was in Dhoom.

“Except the name, it’s a different template. It’s a different format, it’s very different and I really love this space.”

“The experience was absolutely fantastic. We had a lot of fun, great action, the actions sequences in the film are very large, it’s really huge scale film. It’s very special, it comes from the heart. We’re not forcing the line,” he added.

Dishoom is slated to release on 29th July.
