Dhoom Dhaam (2025) is one the most anticipated Indian films of the year, blending action, comedy, and romance. Directed by Rishab Seth and starring Yami Gautam and Pratik Gandhi, this Hindi-language film was released on February 14, 2025 directly on Netflix, with Jio Studios involved in production. 0
Set against the backdrop of a chaotic wedding night, Dhoom Dhaam pairs two opposites—rule-bound Veer and free-spirited Koyal—who are thrust into a runaway adventure after a case of mistaken identity derails their arranged marriage celebrations. The film positions itself as a breezy, big-hearted entertainer that marries screwball humor with chase-movie momentum, anchored by charismatic leads and a crisp streaming-friendly runtime. 1
Movie Overview[]
Dhoom Dhaam follows newlyweds Veer Khurana and Koyal Chadda. What begins as a traditional celebration quickly flips into a wild pursuit involving gangsters, the police, and a mysterious figure named “Charlie.” As misunderstandings pile up, the couple must navigate the city, dodge danger, and—most importantly—learn to trust each other. The narrative leans into classic rom-com rhythms (banter, opposites-attract chemistry) while using the chase framework to keep the pace high. Viewers can expect witty one-liners, escalating comic set-pieces, and an undercurrent of emotional growth as Veer and Koyal confront their differences and find common ground. 2
The film’s tonal blend is intentional: director Rishab Seth threads action beats through a relationship-first story, letting the characters’ personal arcs drive the mayhem. This approach allows Dhoom Dhaam to remain light on its feet while still delivering bursts of adrenaline. Supporting players—including Eijaz Khan as Sathe and Mukul Chadda as Sanjay Riberio—add texture and comedic friction, keeping the stakes lively without undercutting the central romance. 3

Where to Watch
Dhoom Dhaam premiered directly on Netflix as a Netflix India release, aligning with Jio Studios on the production side. The date corresponds with its Valentine’s Day launch to capture the rom-com audience. 14
Story & Themes
At heart, Dhoom Dhaam is a “runaway wedding” romp with a contemporary Indian twist. The arranged marriage setup establishes immediate friction between Veer and Koyal: he values order and reputation; she values autonomy and quick thinking. When a misunderstanding entwines them with criminals and cops searching for the elusive “Charlie,” the couple’s survival depends on cooperation. Each hurdle—slapstick scrapes, narrow escapes, and rapid-fire cover stories—doubles as a relationship checkpoint. 15
Within its buoyant tone, the film nods to topical ideas—gender expectations, public image, and the negotiation of independence inside traditional frameworks. Koyal’s confidence frequently reframes the couple’s strategy, subtly pushing Veer to reassess his worldview. The result is a character journey that rewards openness over stubbornness, suggesting that compatibility is as much learned as it is fated. Reviews highlighted this balance of progressive beats and crowd-pleasing humor. 16
Filmmaking Highlights
Direction
Rishab Seth steers the movie like a caper, keeping scenes punchy and situation-driven rather than effects-heavy. His emphasis on performance chemistry lets the jokes land naturally while the chase mechanics push the narrative forward. 17
Writing
The credited writers—Aditya Dhar and Aarsh Vora, with Rishab Seth also associated with dialogue—shape a plot that’s cleanly motivated by mistaken identity, escalating stakes, and romantic push–pull. The script’s clarity is key: it leaves room for ensemble reactions and running gags without losing the through-line. 18
Performances
Yami Gautam and Pratik Gandhi anchor the film with complementary energies. Gautam plays Koyal as decisive and emotionally intelligent; Gandhi turns Veer’s rigidity into fuel for comedic transformation. The supporting cast (Eijaz Khan, Mukul Chadda, Pavitra Sarkar) provide antagonistic pressure and comic relief, broadening the world beyond the central pair. 19
Visuals
The cinematography (credited in coverage to Siddharth Vasani) favors kinetic handheld passages during chases and cleaner compositions for banter and character beats, underscoring the tonal shift between peril and playfulness. 20
Release Context & Reception
Launching on February 14, 2025, Dhoom Dhaam landed on a date naturally aligned with romance-driven viewing habits. On streaming, the film’s accessible tone and star pairing encouraged immediate sampling. Early write-ups describing it as a “winning combination of romance and hijinks” emphasized how the movie keeps things light without losing its point of view, particularly through Koyal’s persuasive voice. 21
Production & Credits
- Production / Studio: Jio Studios (associated with the title across databases covering the film). 22
- Producers: Jyoti Deshpande, Aditya Dhar, Lokesh Dhar. 23
- Cinematography: Reported as Siddharth Vasani in trade coverage. 24
- Distribution / OTT: Netflix. 25
Why It Stands Out
Dhoom Dhaam doesn’t try to be a sprawling action epic; instead, it chooses a focused canvas: one wild night that tests a brand-new marriage. By rooting every chase, accident, and cover story in the evolving relationship between Veer and Koyal, the film keeps audiences invested. For fans of Indian rom-coms who also enjoy a zippy caper structure, it’s a satisfying watch that fits neatly into the streaming evening slot.
