Actor Saqib Saleem, who is set to essay a cricketer in the upcoming actioner "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," Saqib 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.

The "Mere Dad Ki Maruti" actor also shared that he has no scenes with Jacqueline.

"We had a ball shooting this film. Everyone on the set was nice," he added.
 
Saqib will also be seen sharing screen space with his sister and actress Huma Qureshi in the upcoming Hindi remake of Hollywood film "Oculus".
