'''''Dum''''' ({{trans|Guts}}) is a 2002 Indian [[Hindi]]-language [[action film]] directed by [[Eeshwar Nivas]] and produced by Ali and Karim Morani.

The film released theatrically on 24 January 2003. Director Dharani, who wrote and directed ''Dhill'', criticised ''Dum'' for straying from the source material and making changes that created significant story problems, which resulted in the film not performing well in the Hindi market.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rediff.com/movies/2003/feb/17dharini.htm|title='They have messed up the film!'|publisher=[[Rediff.com]]}}</ref>
