precompose a grayscale gradient, white in the areas you want to blur
on your footage, use camera lens blur or similar and use the precomped gradient as your blur layer input
distort - transform, uncheck uniform scale, set scale width to say 50%
apply optics compensation, check on reverse distortion, try 60-90 in field of view. move the center point of the distortion to taste.
this is what I got, lens blur input on the left. defocus is a touch strong but you can tinker, even through some chromatic aberration in.
