Dunki explores a unique and intriguing concept known as "Donkey Flight," which is an illegal method for individuals to gain backdoor entry into countries like the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States of America. The film delves into the lives of Indian nationals who choose this risky and unlawful path to enter these nations and their subsequent struggles to return home. This theme promises to shed light on a complex issue while entertaining audiences with Shah Rukh Khan's charismatic presence on the screen.
Adding to the film's allure, Dunki stars the immensely talented Taapsee Pannu in the lead role. For director Rajkumar Hirani, Dunki marks his return to the director's chair after a five-year hiatus since his blockbuster release, Sanju. Given his track record, expectations are high for another successful venture. Hirani's collaboration with Shah Rukh Khan, who is riding high on the success of Pathaan and Jawan, has the potential to create fireworks at the box office.
As for the release date, Dunki is set to hit the screens in December, creating a buzz in the film industry. However, it's worth noting that it will face stiff competition from Prabhas' much-awaited film, Salaar, directed by Prashanth Neel of KGF fame. Both Dunki and Salaar are highly anticipated, tentpole films, and trade pundits are closely watching to see if the clash can be averted, which would undoubtedly benefit the film industry as a whole.
