Dunki marks Shah Rukh Khan's third and last release of 2023 following!?
Superstar Shah Rukh Khan says “Dunki” will teach the viewers about loving their motherland and family as he termed the upcoming release his “best film” yet. Billed as a saga of friendships, data-borders, nostalgia for home and love, “Dunki” is a comedy-drama based on an illegal immigration technique ‘donkey flight’. Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, the film will hit the screens on december 21.“Dunki is all about loving your country,” Shah Rukh Khan said at the promotional event of the film on sunday here. “(‘Dunki’) It is my best film… This film will teach you how to love your motherland, parents, and loved ones. It deals with going out, finding a future for yourself, but loving your home the most. So, it is about homecoming. You may live anywhere in the world, but (you come back) to your soil,” the actor added.The film marks his third and last release of 2023 following back-to-back action blockbusters in “Pathaan” and “Jawan”. Shah Rukh, 58, said he made “Dunki” for himself. “When I made ‘Jawan’, I thought I made a film for boys and girls but I didn’t make anything for myself. Then, I made ‘Dunki’, this is a film for me. It’s very close to my heart. When I was doing ‘Pathaan’, many people who write about films, who perhaps know more about films than the ones who make them, said what kind of roles Shah Rukh is doing. I really felt I should do films that come from my heart and I did all the films which you have seen this year from my heart. The year started with ‘Pathaan’, which was always ladies first, and I want to end the year with a film for myself. So, please watch ‘Dunki’ on december 21 for me. I’m sure you will find something in the film that will touch your heart and make you laugh,” he shared.
