Filmmaker Sanjay Gadhvi, known for Dhoom and Dhoom 2, passed away on Sunday. The 57-year-old director reportedly suffered a heart attack, leading to his demise. Actor Abhishek Bachchan, who is part of the films, penned a heartful note mourning the filmmaker's demise. 

Taking to his Instagram handle, sharing pictures of Sanjay, Abhishek wrote," I took this photo of Sanjay whilst we were filming the climax of Dhoom 2 in South Africa. We made 2 films together - Dhoom and Dhoom 2. Sanju, when I spoke to you last week, and we were reminiscing about our shoots and memories, I would never have imagined, even in my craziest dreams, that I would have to write a post like this. I'm shocked beyond belief. You had faith in me, even when I didn't. You gave me my first-ever hit!!! I can never ever forget that or be able to express what it meant to me. I will cherish your friendship always. Rest in peace, my brother."

Sanjay started his career as a filmmaker with Tere Liye (2001), a low-budget film. After directing yet another small sophomore film, Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai (2002), the director went on to make Dhoom (2004) and Dhoom 2 (2006), which were blockbuster hits. Apart from Abhishek Bachchan, the film also stars Hrithik Roshan, John Abraham and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in lead roles.
