Fans review Dunki

A user mentioned, "#DunkiReview by a Shah Rukh Khan fan cum reviewer! #Dunki is Raju Hirani's Weakest film, It's a bore-fest of epic proportions, Shah Rukh's acting and accent is cartoonish, You will be scrolling your mobiles in the 2nd Half!"

YouTuber Anmol Jamwal posted, "#Dunki tells an important tale but it's far from being #RajkumarHirani's best! The ensemble cast shines & the film highlights the plight of immigrants dreaming of a better tomorrow. The screenplay let's the film down. Bordering on silly on many occasions. It's good. Not great!"

Sunil Pal, who watched the first show of Dunki, told ANI, "This Guruvar, or Thursday, Shah Rukh Khan's latest will dwarf all other films. Rajkumar Hirani (the director of Dunki) is a magician and SRK is a baazigar. It will mark a hat-trick of hits for him after Pathaan' and 'Jawan. Dunki will go on to be a mega blockbuster."

Dunki box office

According to early estimates by trade website Sacnilk, Shah Rukh Khan starrer Dunki is expected to earn around Rs 30 crore on Day 1 in India.
