When A Wedding Night Goes Crazy!

‘This
film
is
a
wild
and
unpredictable
ride.’

The
first
time
on-screen
pairing
of
Pratik
Gandhi
and
Yami
Gautam
launch
into
an
unexpected
adventure
as
a
newlywed
couple
after
their
wedding
night
turn
into
a
whirlwind
of
guns,
gangsters,
and
startling
revelations.

The
film,
aptly
titled

Dhoom
Dhaam,
is
co-produced
by
Yami’s
filmmaker
husband
Aditya
Dhar
and
helmed
by
Rishab
Seth.

“With

Dhoom
Dhaam,
we
wanted
to
create
something
unique
and
entertaining,
where
humour,
chaos,
action
and
romance
come
together
in
a
fresh,
high-energy
story.
We
are
excited
for
viewers
to
experience
this
rollercoaster
of
emotions,”
Dhar
said
at
the
special
showcase
of
the
trailer
for
the
media.

The
fun
and
quirky
trailer
introduces
Yami
as
Koyal
and
Pratik
as
Veer
who
seem
to
be
mismatched
for
each
other.
Dressed
as
bride
and
groom,
the
couple
awkwardly
navigate
their
first
night
together.

Their
wedding
night
is
disrupted
when
a
sudden
knock
on
the
door
brings
in
some
goons
who
violently
ask
the
couple,
“Charlie

kidhar
hai?“

This
skirmish
goes
out
of
control
after
Koyal
shoots
down
one
of
the
baddies,
which
inadvertently
sets
a
chain
of
lethal
run-ins.

Yami
Gautam
shares
BTS
fun
moments
from
the

Dhoom
Dhaam
sets:

In
an
interesting
twist
to
usual
gender
portrayals
in
Hindi
films,
we
see
Koyal
taking
charge
of
the
situation
as
Veer
clings
onto
her
for
his
safety.

“Koyal
defies
the
usual
‘bride’
stereotypes
without
being
brash
or
bullish
or
anything
you
have
watched
on
screen
before,”
Yami
says
about
her
character
in

Dhoom
Dhaam.

“I
very
much
enjoyed
playing
such
a
different
character
and
I
am
sure
a
lot
of
girls
today
will
connect
with
Koyal.
This
film
is
a
wild
and
unpredictable
ride.”

In
a
sharp
contrast
to
his
flamboyant
Harshad
Mehta
in

Scam
1992
and
goody
two
shoes
roles
in

Madgaon
Express
and

Do
Aur
Do
Pyaar.
Pratik
says
Veer
is
not
a
typical
rom-com
hero
as
depicted
several
times
before
in
Bollywood.

“Playing
Veer
was
a
refreshing
experience
for
me.
I
loved
playing
the
role
because
it’s
not
your
typical
rom-com
hero
—
he
is
relatable,
vulnerable,
and
then
ends
up
in
the
most
unexpected
situations.”

WATCH:
Pratik
Gandhi
talks
about
his
character
in

Dhoom
Dhaam…

Director
Rishab
Seth,
who
has
also
co-written
the
story
with
Aditya
Dhar,
says

Dhoom
Dhaam
is
a
hilarious
mix
of
romance,
humour
and
action,
but
at
its
core
it
is
a
unique
take
on
the
idea
of
love.

“With

Dhoom
Dhaam,
we
wanted
to
explore
love
in
all
its
messy,
chaotic
glory.
This
isn’t
just
a
story
about
two
people
coming
together,
it
is
actually
about
discovering
how
love
can
survive,
and
even
flourish,
in
the
most
unexpected
and
unpredictable
situations.”

Yami
says
she
had
so
much
fun
playing
such
a
vibrant
and
spunky
character
after
her
intense
screen
avatar
in

Article
370
last
year,
which
was
backed
by
her
husband.
She
called
comedy
her
“toughest”
genre
to
tackle
and
praised
the
late
Sridevi
for
her
“unmatched”
comic
timing.

“I
have
been
a
huge
fan
of
Srideviji.
Her
comic
timing
is
still
unmatched.
I
met
her
one
or
two
times
briefly.
Her
demeanour
was
calm,
straightforward,
and
extremely
professional.”

Yami
cites
Sridevi
films
like

Sadma,
Chaalbaaz
and

Mr
India
and
notes
that
female
actors
don’t
often
get
an
opportunity
to
play
comic
roles.

“It
has
been
phenomenal
to
watch
Sridevi
on
screen
and
perform,
especially
in
comedy
roles.
I
hope
that
more
such
characters
are
written
for
women,
because
I
feel
very
few
characters
are
written
for
women
in
comedy
where
women
can
perform,”
adds
Yami.

Yami
about
how
family
support
helps
her
balance
personal
and
professional
roles…

Dhoom
Dhaam

Netflix
