That's because the singer doesn't pronouce it correctly. I've heard my cousins (who are born & bred Indians) pronouce it and it's different to how it's pronounced in the song.
The singer is
Tata Young - who is half Thai/American (and 100% gorgeous). AFAIK, she doesn't speak Hindi but she did a great job with the song nevertheless (having to learn a language for the sake of a song is pretty difficult I guess).
Once you watch Dhoom (but watch Black first), you'll see a Tata Young music video as an extra - she's
hooooottttttttt.
Oh btw, from
imdb:
The music director, Pritam Chakraborty, had a tough time composing "Dhoom Dhoom." Apparently, Tata Young , no matter how much she tried, pronounced the word "Dhoom" as "Doom." It was eventually left that way.

Blast it. You may say this, if its in a love song as your heart making a blast
The subtitles on the DVD translate it as "pump the rock" lol.
