Dunki

"Dunki" excited us from the announcement, as we grew up watching SRK and Raju Hirani. Apart from that, Bollywood has never explored such a unique plot. Now, coming back to the movie, "Dunki" is a decent entertainer with a great first half and a weak second half. The screenplay is engaging until the first half; after that, it falters. This is the only weakest point of "Dunki." The music is outstanding and fits perfectly into the scenes. The dialogues are well-written. SRK, Taapsee, and others have done a tremendous job. Overall, it's a great entertainer for the festive season. It might not be Raju Hirani's best, but you have to remember it's still better than others' best work .

Made me laugh.. made me cry! Made me live a journey I never took.. made me feel emotions which I never knew existed- the desperation and the plight of people who take the "Dunki route".

Raju Hirani has created a masterpiece. Vicky, Tapsee and SRK have brought it to life as beautifully as possible. We rarely get to see such natural performances these days. Dil jeet lia sb hi ne.

It's more of an emotional drama than comedy. It's more of reality than fantasy.

Vicky's walk after *that* phone call, SRK's last scene at roof top, and the videography of "Nikle The Kabhi Hum Ghar Se" with all the flashbacks. Your eyes will be soaked in tears.

9 out of 10 stars for this magnum opus.

Its a must watch.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Dunki presents a compelling story that serves as its core attraction, depicting the aspirations of four friends from a Punjab village yearning to reach England. Their journey, hindered by the lack of visas and tickets, becomes a humorous yet touching narrative of enduring friendship, homeland nostalgia, and overarching love. Shah Rukh Khan delivers a commendable performance, surpassing his recent roles in 'Pathaan' and 'Jawan.' However, his dominating presence occasionally overshadows the other characters, who themselves have significant stories to tell. This imbalance highlights a need for more depth in Khan's portrayal.

The movie excels in conveying a powerful message through effective storytelling. Yet, its approach to musical elements could be refined. The abrupt dance sequences feel out-of-place and disrupt the narrative flow, often leading viewers to disengage and resort to browsing on their phones. Integrating songs seamlessly into the background could enhance the cinematic experience.

Overall, 'Dunki' is a quality film with the potential to be even more impactful. It skillfully blends humor with heartfelt themes, though it falls short in certain aspects of character development and musical integration. This film is a step in the right direction, promising an enjoyable watch while leaving room for improvement in future endeavors.

Hirani nailed it. Early morning went for movie which was worth it. It has some drama which was forcefully added then focused on real content. If its real content was more than unnecessary drama then i would have give it 10. Otherwise you will love the movie. You will enjoy this movie multiple times on your lifetime. It is mainly focused on type of person who wants to goto foreign. It is so true that many people want to goto foreign and have a lavish lifestyle but failed to do so. So this movie also taught us some lessions. It is very good movie. If u are srk fan u will definitely like this movie but if u are neutal fan also.. u will enjoy this movie.

Dunki is a unique take on a situation not known by many in India. In a way, it educates people to some extent. Bur since the problem is not known by many, audiences may not be able to relate to the story.

The story revolves around a group of people who want visit/migrate to UK for different reasons. Their journey, called, dunki, based in the route they take is full of emotions and a roller coaster ride.

The common reaso in migrating to UK for the characters is the need to earn a good livelihood. In today's scenario,many may feel thar there are ample opportunities here and may not think the story to be good.

However, everyone will surely relate to the emotions and when it comes to emotions, no one can beat SRK. That man speaks emotions with his eyes, nose, ear, hair, literally everything. He is so popular for a reason. SRK shines all along in the movie.

But the person who steals the show is, Vicky Kaushal. He is at par with SRK in the screen time he gets, very impactful acting. He has been doing amazing acting and for me, he takes the crown of the best actor in this movie.

Tapsee has always been amazing, and her role in this movie gives her ample moments to prove her mettle. Rest of the actors are doing justice to their roles and are a treat to watch.
