On their wedding night, an oddball couple is thrust into a chaotic chase, dodging goons and cops in a frenzied hunt for the mysterious "Charlie."

Critic Consensus

Critical reception for Dhoom Dhaam is mixed to moderately positive, with most reviewers acknowledging the film as a watchable, fast-paced entertainer. The lead pair of Yami Gautam and Pratik Gandhi — their chemistry and comic timing — is the most consistently praised element across reviews. However, several critics found the film derivative, noting its reliance on borrowed tropes, predictable plotting, and a lack of originality that prevents it from fully succeeding as either a thriller or a comedy. One outlier praised the script as near-flawless with repeat value, while detractors felt the film offered little beyond its charming leads.

4.0
The trouble with skimming tropes is that your film, even with a fresh pairing, and despite a few flourishes, ends up more or less trope-y. If this were called 'Boom Baam', instead of 'Dhoom Dhaam', it would be same difference.

Full marks to Yami Gautam and Pratik Gandhi for gamely trying to spice up a desultory ride.

A flawless and wonderfully crisp script puts this film into the rare category of Hindi movies without an extra frame. This is a movie full of Dhoom Dhaam and has such a robust title, so go for it in the comfort of your home. This one, I think, has repeat value like Dhar's earlier film and Hindi cinema's best thrillers!

7.0
Dhoom Dhaam is a genuinely enjoyable comedy-thriller that thrives on its fast-paced execution, stellar performances, and lighthearted vibe. While it may not offer a groundbreaking plot or deep emotional resonance, it succeeds as a fun, escapist film that delivers on its promise of entertainment.

Devesh Sharma· Filmfare
6.0
Dhoom Dhaam is an action comedy which coasts on the comic timing of its leads, Yami Gautam and Pratik Gandhi. With a dependable cast, competent direction, and an action-filled plot, this one's a must-see for anyone who loves a good bouncy, action-packed romance, especially on Valentine's Day.

Unfortunately, Dhoom Dhaam isn't able to pull any of it off. What can then be done to make your film stand out is to make it entertaining, but the film lacks the freshness needed to deliver either as a complete thriller or comedy.

Not rated
Netflix's latest film Dhoom Dhaam attempts a fresh offering at a screwball rom-com, but ends up being a rehash of borrowed tropes and predictable plotlines. Dhoom Dhaam is a harmless-enough watch, in that its creative aspects are uninspired, and tried and tested.
