Bollywood icon Shah Rukh Khan dropped the much-anticipated trailer of his upcoming comedy-drama, Dunki, on Tuesday, leaving fans in awe of the emotional journey that awaits. Taking to Instagram, the megastar shared a sneak peek into the remarkable tale of friendship, aspirations, and the trials of life.
“Dunki’s trailer will show you a journey that began with Raju Sir’s vision. It will take you through a madcap ride of friendship, the comedy and tragedy that life is and a nostalgia for home & family,” Shah Rukh wrote in his Instagram post.
The three-minute trailer introduces Shah Rukh as Hardy, the protagonist narrating his story that commenced in 1995 in the quaint village of Latlu, Punjab. The film boasts a stellar cast, including Vikram Kochchar as Buggu, Vicky Kaushal as Sukhi, and Taapsee Pannu as Manu, showcasing their struggles and aspirations to move abroad from India.
Fans immediately showered praise on the heartwarming storyline, with one enthusiast stating, “This is simply an incredible story which touches millions of hearts.” Another fan appreciated the film’s deviation from traditional Bollywood elements, saying, “No gore violence, no heroism, no item song, no over the top scenes… Only story, pure realistic comedies, real-life stories with intelligent creative imagination – That is Rajkumar Hirani sir’s style of filmmaking. Cherry on the cake is SRK.”
Directed by the acclaimed Rajkumar Hirani, Dunki promises to deliver a unique blend of emotions and laughter. The comedy-drama is set to hit cinemas worldwide on December 21, 2023, marking the much-awaited return of Shah Rukh Khan to the big screen. Fans are eagerly counting down the days until they can embark on this emotional rollercoaster.
