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.

"We had a ball shooting this film. Everyone on the set was nice," he added.
