Dhumm is a 2002 Indian Kannada-language action drama film directed by M. S. Ramesh, starring Sudeep and Rakshita. The film features background score and soundtrack composed by Gurukiran and lyrics by Kaviraj and V. Nagendra Prasad. The film was released on 27 September 2002. It was a critical and commercial success. The film was dubbed in Telugu as Hero No.1 and in Hindi as Dumdaar.[1] This movie is an official remake of Tamil movie Dheena (2001) starring Ajith Kumar, with major plot changes with sentimental flashbacks.[2]
The protagonist Varada (Sudeep) is like fire when faced with injustice. His heart is cool as ice otherwise. He picks up a machete for a solid reason and continues his vengeance when required. His mother is against Varada’s violent principles but Varada thinks he is the only bad element in the house and never gives up his ideals. But subconsciously Varada is also struggling to get a good name and this is established in the climax.
The fiery handsome guy in love with his opponent’s daughter (Rakshita) reaches a tight spot when his sister is murdered. He hatches a clever plot and fulfills his task of restoring the glory of his father. He begs his mother to accept him as a good son after settling his scores with some goons.
The soundtrack was composed by Gurukiran collaborating with Sudeep for the second time after Chandu (2002). All the lyrics were written by V. Nagendra Prasad.
