On this day 10 years ago, "Dhoom", the first of Bollywood's hit thriller heist franchise, hit the screens. Actor Abhishek Bachchan, who has starred in all three films, says the movie was a life-changing experience for him.

"10yrs ago my life changed! #10yrsofDhoom thank u all 4 the constant love and support. @udaychopra @TheJohnAbraham @Esha_Deol @SanjayGadhvi4," Abhishek tweeted Wednesday.

Directed by Sanjay Gadhvi and produced by Aditya Chopra under the famed Yash Raj Films banner, "Dhoom" also stars Uday Chopra, John Abraham, Esha Deol and Rimi Sen.


Abhishek plays a no-nonsense police officer, who cracks a case involving a motorbike gang that loots banks. John plays the leader of the gang, and Uday features as Abhishek's sidekick in the movie.

The sequel to "Dhoom", "Dhoom 2: Back in Action" came out in 2006, with Hrithik Roshan playing the antagonist, and "Dhoom:3", which released last year, saw Aamir Khan in the villain's role.
