Actor Saqib Saleem, who is set to essay a cricketer in the upcoming action film Dishoom, says it is a “full action” and an “intelligent masala” film.
“Dishoom is a full action film. You have to wait for the film to know about it... It is a superb script and I think Rohit (Dhawan, director) has made it into an intelligent masala film,” Saleem told IANS.
“When one makes a masala film, they make a masala film and when an intelligent film, there is an intelligent film. So for me Dishoom is an intelligent masala film,” he added.
Dishoom also features actors Varun Dhawan, John Abraham, Akshay Khanna and Jacqueline Fernandez.
The Mere Dad Ki Maruti actor also shared that he has no scenes with Fernandez.
“My cricketing portions are separate from Jacqueline and John. In fact, me and Jacqueline didn’t shoot together at all. We have no scenes together. All my major scenes are with John, Varun and Akshay,” Saleem said.
“We had a ball shooting this film. Everyone on the set was nice,” he added.
Saleem will also be seen sharing screen space with his sister and actress Huma Qureshi in the upcoming Hindi remake of Hollywood film Oculus.
Released in 2013, Oculus is the story of a brother and sister battling paranormal activity. Saleem and Qureshi will be portraying the characters played by Karen Gillan and Brenton Thwaites in the film.
