But it was Yash Raj Film's 'Dhoom' which gave Sanjay Gadhvi the real stand in Bollywood. The film received wide acclaim for its stellar cast and action sequences. Later the sequel, 'Dhoom 2′, turned out to be the highest grosser of 2006 and also won him a nomination as the Best Director at the Filmfare Awards in 2007.
Sanjay also made a thriller 'Kidnap' with Sanjay Dutt and Imran Khan in 2008 which failed to make any impressions. Sanjay is now ready to try his luck with a romantic comedy Ajab Gazabb Love being produced by Vashu Bhagnani starring Jackky Bhagnani and new comer Niddhi Subbaiah.
The film also has Arjun Rampal, Darshan Jariwala and Kirron Kher. The film is an romantic comedy and releases on 24th October worldwide.
Sanjay is very charged up about his foray into comedies. The director claimed Ajab Gazabb Love to be on the lines of Hrishikesh Mukherjee cinema. Ajab Gazabb Love shows how Jackky, a multimillionaire attempts to be poor because Nidhi whom he loves hates rich guys. The 'riches to rags' story takes one hysterical turn after the other.
