"'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.
