On 'Dunki' day, December 21, fans headed to the theatres to watch the first-day first-show of Shah Rukh Khan's film.
Shah Rukh Khan's 'Dunki', helmed by Rajkumar Hirani, finally hit the silver screens today on December 21. Clearly, after the success of ‘Pathaan’ and ‘Jawan’, the excitement for SRK’s third film this year has been on an all-time high. Fans cannot wait to see their favourite actor on the big screen, and they flocked cinema halls to watch the 'Badshah of Bollywood'.
Now as the film was released, a video of a fan dressed like SRK's character Hardy, has surfaced online and has caught the attention of everyone, including Shah Rukh Khan. The video also featured the fan recreating the wrestling scene from ‘Dunki’.
To say the least, the 'Dunki' fever has taken over theatres across India, and fans have welcomed SRK yet again on the silver screen by bursting crackers and dancing to dhol beats. As fans waited outside theatres to watch the film, a fan dressed as SRK's 'Dunki' character Hardy was seen. He wore a blue kurta pyjama with a matching sweater, exactly copying SRK's look in ‘Dunki’. He then even enacted a scene from the film outside the theatre, and it left all the people around cheering for him.
The video caught the attention of the ‘Dunki’ actor also, and he reacted to the viral video on X. SRK wrote, "Arre ab picture dekhne toh jao ya bahar hi kushti karte rahoge. Go see the movie and tell me if you all enjoyed it. (Will you go and watch the film in the theatre or just end up doing wrestling outside) (sic)."
