In a show of fervent anticipation, comedian Sunil Pal, a devoted fan of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, joined the legion of admirers watching the first-day, first-show screening of SRK’s latest theatrical release, ‘Dunki.’
Speaking to the media, Sunil Pal expressed his confidence in the film’s success, stating, “This Guruvar, or Thursday, Shah Rukh Khan’s latest will dwarf all other films. Rajkumar Hirani, the director of ‘Dunki,’ is a magician, and SRK is a baazigar. It will mark a hat-trick of hits for him after ‘Pathaan’ and ‘Jawan.’ Dunki will go on to be a mega blockbuster.”
The movie’s first show in India, scheduled at 5.55 am at Mumbai’s iconic single-screen theatre, drew massive crowds of fans, celebrating with dhol beats, fireworks, and vibrant displays. Videos shared by Shah Rukh’s fan clubs showcased the energetic atmosphere, with fans dancing and displaying their excitement for the release.
‘Dunki,’ directed by Rajkumar Hirani, features a stellar cast including Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal, and Boman Irani.
Shah Rukh Khan and Rajkumar Hirani recently promoted the film in Dubai, where the actor recreated his signature pose during a drone show at the iconic Burj Khalifa.
Co-written by Abhijat Joshi, Rajkumar Hirani, and Kanika Dhillon, ‘Dunki’ tells the heartwarming tale of four friends pursuing dreams of a better life in London, embarking on a life-changing journey.
During an event in Dubai, SRK described ‘Dunki’ as his best film, expressing a personal connection to the project. He stated, “This film is very close to my heart. When I was doing Pathaan, I really felt that I should do films that come from my heart. So, please watch Dunki on December 21. Everyone will find something in the film that will touch their heart. The film will make you laugh also.”
‘Dunki’ marks Shah Rukh Khan’s first collaboration with Rajkumar Hirani and actress Taapsee Pannu, adding to the buzz surrounding this much-anticipated release.
