Dishoom (2016) is a Bollywood action-adventure film directed by Rohit Dhawan. The story revolves around the mysterious kidnapping of Indian cricket star Viraj Sharma (Saqib Saleem) just 36 hours before a crucial India-Pakistan match in the Middle East. With national pride at stake, India’s government deploys tough and no-nonsense cop Kabir Shergill (John Abraham) to retrieve the cricketer. He is partnered with Junaid Ansari (Varun Dhawan), an inexperienced yet enthusiastic officer from the local police force. Together, they embark on a high-octane mission filled with thrilling chases, intense fights, and unexpected humor. Along the way, they meet Ishika (Jacqueline Fernandez), a fearless thief who holds valuable information, and she reluctantly becomes part of their rescue operation.

As their investigation progresses, they uncover that the mastermind behind the kidnapping is Wagah (Akshaye Khanna), a cunning and ruthless bookie who has orchestrated the abduction to manipulate cricket betting markets. Kabir and Junaid must race against time, tackling numerous obstacles, including betrayals, high-speed chases, and combat sequences, to save Viraj before the match begins. The film seamlessly blends action, comedy, and suspense, keeping viewers engaged with its gripping storyline and dynamic performances. John Abraham brings intense action, while Varun Dhawan provides comic relief, creating an entertaining contrast. Jacqueline Fernandez adds glamour and action with her role, and Akshaye Khanna impresses as the intelligent villain.

With stunning visuals set in the Middle East, pulsating background music, and stylishly choreographed action scenes, Dishoom offers a complete Bollywood entertainer. It is a fast-paced, action-packed film that successfully delivers a mix of patriotism, humor, and thrill, making it an enjoyable watch for fans of masala entertainers.
