‘Dunki’ would clash with Prabhas’ ‘Salaar’ at the box office, which releases a day later on December 22.
After ‘Pathaan’ and ‘Jawan’, Shah Rukh Khan is all set to return to the silver screen with his third film of the year, ‘Dunki’. On Tuesday, as part of the ‘Dunki’ promotions, several drones lit up the sky in Dubai and made the formations of Shah Rukh Khan's name, his signature pose and an aeroplane. The iconic Burj Khalifa also screened the trailer of Rajkumar Hirani-directed ‘Dunki’.
Now pictures and videos from the ‘Dunki’ drone event in Dubai have now surfaced online. Shah Rukh, who is currently in Dubai for the promotions, witnessed everything in person, along with director Rajkumar Hirani and writer Abhijat Joshi. The actor was seen wearing a black T-shirt and matching denims paired with a red jacket and sunglasses.
As for ‘Dunki’, the film features an ensemble cast of Shah Rukh, Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal, Vikram Kochhar, Anil Grover and Boman Irani. The film will be released in cinema halls on Thursday. It has been co-written by Abhijat Joshi, Rajkumar Hirani, and Kanika Dhillon. The film is about four friends Manu, Sukhi, Buggu, and Balli who dream of settling down in London for a better life. However, they need to take a life-changing journey to reach their destination.
On Tuesday, Shah Rukh even shared a new Dunki poster as well. Sharing it on social media, he wrote, “Dunki, apne rishte peeche chhod aate hain... Ek din wahi rishte, unhe ghar wapas kheench laate hain (Dunkis leave their relatives behind but the same relationships bring them back to their homes).”
Meanwhile, the actor also shared a video which had the ‘Dunki’ team talking about the film, its story and the idea behind making the film. "There are many houses in Punjab that have planes on the rooftops. I was quite amazed by that and that's what piqued our curiosity. Family members of those children who live abroad find it fashionable to put these planes on top of their houses," Rajkumar Hirani said.
The film would clash with Prabhas’ ‘Salaar’ at the box office, which releases a day later on December 22.
