Bollywood film Dishoom takes Yas Island by storm
Abu Dhabi, Mar 17 (NITN) Bollywood superstars John Abraham and Varun Dhawan took a well-earned break from filming their upcoming action-adventure film, Dishoom, at Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi, to meet with VIPs from Yas Island.

The famous heartthrobs, along with the film’s director Rohit Dhawan, and production head Manoj Mittra, met with senior management from Miral, Farah Experiences LLC, and Yas Viceroy Abu Dhabi - another of the filming locations.

Dishoom’s local producer is twofour54 Abu Dhabi and the movie is ready for release in July.

Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi, the UAE’s first mega waterpark, is home to 45 exhilarating rides, slides and attractions that will thrill the whole family – five of which can be found nowhere else in the world. 
 
With rides and experiences on offer to thrill both the young and the young at heart, the waterpark plays host to Best New Water Ride of the Year 2013, Dawwama – the world’s longest and fastest tornado waterslide, as well as the globe’s first interactive water and laser rollercoaster, Bandit Bomber. 
 
Each of Yas Waterworld’s award-winning attractions is based around the park’s unique Emirati theme, which pays tribute to the UAE’s heritage of pearl diving.
