The action thriller franchise kicked off in 2004 with the movie Dhoom. It introduced the duo of ACP Jai Dixit and Ali, played by Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra respectively. John Abraham portrayed the character of Kabir Sharma, who along with his biker gang created havoc in Mumbai with robberies. John impressed the audience with his role in this slick and stylish film.

In the 2006 film Dhoom 2, Jai and Ali pursued a thief named Mr. A (Hrithik Roshan), who stole important artifacts. Mr. A teamed up with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s Sunehri for his heists. Apart from Hrithik’s charm, his chemistry with Aishwarya was also one of the highlights of the movie.

In 2013 came the film Dhoom 3. The movie introduced Aamir Khan as the villain who continued the cat-and-mouse game with Jai and Ali. He played the role of Sahir, a circus entertainer who robs a bank in Chicago to take revenge. The twist in the tale came with his double role.
