The Hindi movie Dhoom, released in 2004, was a game-changer in the Bollywood action film genre. Starring John Abraham, Abhishek Bachchan, and Esha Deol, the movie was a high-octane action flick that left audiences on the edge of their seats. Directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, Dhoom was a stylish and entertaining ride that showcased the best of Bollywood's action and music.
Two decades later, the original Dhoom remains a cult classic largely due to John Abraham’s performance. It proved that in Bollywood, the villain could be the real hero of the story. The film's tagline— "The Chase Begins" —was fitting, because John Abraham’s portrayal of Kabir began a chase for the "perfect stylish anti-hero" that Bollywood is still trying to catch up with.
