It came 10 years after their inception as Euphoria released their first studio album titled ‘Dhoom’ in the October of 1998 to critical acclaim and commercial success.They became the pioneers of ‘Hind Rock’ or rock music in Hindi. Their first single was titled ‘Dhoom Pichuk Dhoom’ – and it became the most popular video to hit TV screens in that decade.
