India's
biggest
production
house,
Yash
Raj
Films,
gave
India
its
biggest
franchise
with
the
Dhoom
series
of
films.
These
adrenaline
pumping,
edge
of
the
seat,
anti-hero
entertainers
have
been
true
visual
spectacles.
The
Dhoom
franchise
have
set
new
benchmarks
in
every
department
of
movie-making,
as
well
as
at
the
national
and
global
box
office.
Sanjay
Gadhvi's
Dhoom
2
completes
14
years
today.
The
film
starring
Hrithik
Roshan,
Aishwarya
Rai
Bachchan,
Abhishek
Bachchan,
Uday
Chopra
and
Bipasha
Basu
was
a
blockbuster
at
the
box
office.
On
the
14th
anniversary
of
Dhoom
2,
Pritam,
who
had
composed
the
music
for
the
Dhoom
series,
opened
up
about
how
he
composed
'Dhoom
Machale',
a
track
that
has
entertained
generations
of
Indians.
Pritam
recalled,
"I
remember
that
'Dilbara;
was
the
first
song
to
get
locked
for
Dhoom
and
it
was
Ali's
(Uday
Chopra)
song,
Sameer
Saab
(lyricist)
came
into
the
picture.
At
that
time
there
was
no
name,
Dhoom
was
not
there.
'Dhoom
Machale'
was
one
of
the
songs
which
was
banked
for
Dhoom.
I
remember
there
was
a
meeting
about
the
title
of
the
film.
We
were
all
sitting
and
brainstorming
and
Adi
came
up
with
putting
Dhoom
Machale,
Dhoom
Machale,
Dhoom
in
the
melody
of
what
we
had.
I
have
forgotten
what
the
scratch
lyrics
were
at
that
time.
So,
when
Adi
came
up
with
Dhoom
Machale,
everyone
immediately
locked
onto
it
and
said
this
is
the
title
of
the
film
and
the
title
song!"
Pritam
admitted
that
he
did
not
expect
Dhoom
Machale
to
become
such
a
rage
among
audiences.
He
said,
"We
never
thought
that
Dhoom
will
become
so
big.
I
never
thought,
I
was
just
hoping
that
it
cuts
through
and
becomes
popular
because
it
was
important
for
me
at
that
time.
It's
always
important
for
a
song
to
become
popular
but
at
that
time
I
was
just
hoping
and
praying.
I
remember
the
day
Dhoom
was
releasing
I
was
going
to
Shirdi
and
on
the
way
I
heard
in
2
places
-
one
was
a
car
back
horn
with
the
Dhoom
Machale
tune
and
the
other
was
somebody
in
Shirdi
was
singing
it.
Then
I
knew
gaana
toh
popular
hogaya.
Dhoom
was
a
great
gig!"
'Dhoom
Machale;
had
an
English
version
sung
by
popular
international
artist
Tata
Young
and
that
track
topped
charts
and
became
an
urban
youth
anthem.
Pritam
disclosed,
"Adi
said
let's
make
an
English
version
of
Dhoom
Machale!
I
don't
know
why
Adi
said
it.
I
thought
it
was
not
going
to
work
in
the
beginning,
and
so,
Tata
Young
came
into
the
picture.
I
remember
Tata
was
saying,
'Doom'
machale,
because
the
was
no
'Dh" in
English
and
she
was
laughing,
as
we
were
trying
to
get
"Dh"
out
of
her.
I
thought
the
English
track
was
actually
a
great
idea
by
Adi
because
it
gave
another
dimension
to
Dhoom
Machale.
That
song
became
extremely
popular
in
Southeast
Asia,
China,
and
lot
of
other
places."
Pritam
revealed
that
he
was
feeling
overwhelmed
to
create
Dhoom
2's
music
because
the
first
film's
music
went
through
the
roof.
He
says,
"When
I
started
composing
Dhoom
2
music,
I
was
feeling
the
pressure
because
Dhoom
1's
music
was
a
huge
success
story.
However,
Adi
asked
us
to
not
take
any
pressure,
and
just
to
go
with
the
flow
and
script.
We
had
to
do
a
new
version
of
Dhoom
Machale,
like
a
newer
version.
So,
there
is
this
idea
which
came,
they
wanted
to
use
trash
materials
and
make
music
out
of
it
to
give
it
a
super
cool
vibe!"
Pritam
adds,
"I
remember,
while
making
the
scratch
of
'Dhoom
Machale'
for
Dhoom
2,
I
went
to
Four
Bungalows
(Mumbai
suburb)
and
visited
all
the
shops
around
Andheri
and
bought
biscuit
tins,
different
kinds
of
vessels
which
make
sound,
made
a
huge
stock
of
cans,
big
flour
cans
and
we
created
the
track
out
of
that
sound.
The
Dhoom
theme
was
made
out
of
car
honks
and
Dhoom:
2's
entire
percussion
was
made
out
of
trash
cans!
It
was
crazy,
fun
and
again
Adi
wanted
to
keep
it
in
English.
The
suggestion
to
make
Vishal
sing
came
from
Adi
only,
then
we
had
the
girl
version
for
the
end
title.
My
favourite
song
from
Dhoom
2
will
be
'Crazy
Kiya
Re'.
I
really
enjoyed
the
process
of
'Crazy
Kiya
Re'."
