All About Dunki

Helmed by PK director Rajkumar Hirani, Dunki is a heartwarming story of the journey of four middle-class friends who are desperate to leave India and reach abroad by hook or crook.

Written by acclaimed film writer Abhijat Joshi, the comedy-drama casts Shah Rukh Khan as the lead actor while featuring Tapsee Pannu, Boman Irani, Vickey Kaushal and in key roles. The film was released in the theaters on Thursday (21 November) under the banner of Red Chilli Entertainments.

What Inspired Rajkumar Hirani to make Dunki?

Meanwhile, in a recently released YouTube video Dunki Diaries, Shah Rukh Khan, Pannu, and Rajkumar Hirani talked about their movie.

In the same video, Hirani also spoke about the incident that inspired him to make a film like Dunki. He revealed that he once visited Punjab and noticed that a house in Jalandhar had a huge cemented airplane on its rooftops. This made the director curious and motivated him to make a movie based on the same.
