About Dunki
It is a touching story of four friends Manu, Sukh, Buggu and Ball who dream of settling in London for a better life but have to undertake a difficult but life-changing journey to achieve their goal.
At an event in Dubai, SRK described Dunki as his best film. he said, “While making Jawan, I thought of making a film for boys and girls, but I didn’t do anything for me, then I made Dunki. So this is my movie. This movie is very close to my heart. When I did Pathaan, a lot of people who write about films, who probably know more about films than the filmmakers, said what kind of roles I do, so I really felt that I should do films that come from my heart and that includes all movies made this year.” He furthur said, “I started the year with Pathaan, which has always been women first and I want to end the year with a film for myself. So please watch Dunki on December 21st. Everyone will find something in the film that touches their heart. The film also makes you laugh.”
The film is SRK’s first collaboration with Hirani and Taapsee.
