Dunki

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.

I'M A DIE HARD FAN OF SRK AND Hirani Aswell.. Film is Beautiful.. Enjoyable.. But not so upto the mark.. Something is definitely missing.. THE SPARK IS MISSING OF HIRANI AND THE WRITER ABHIJAT.. TAPSEE IS GOOD AS USUAL.. MAY BE ITS A BEST TILL DATE.. VICKY KAUSHAL IS SUPRB. VICKRAM AND ANIL ARE TOO AWSM.

It's a One time watchable movie.. Not a Bad a movie but we expect more from HIRANI. He is genius at his work but not this time.

Anyway.. Its a gud movie, completely family package.. Pure and clean film it is.. Hopefully Hirani and Abhijat and Kanika Dhillon comes with BIGGER next time.........

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.

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.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Being an RH fan I had to see this on the first day and it left me disappointed. Once the credits roll you will say it's a good movie but will I watch it again? NO.

It has the emotions and drama backed by great performances from SRK and Taapsee. The social message is delivered but if you are going to watch this for walking out with that 'feel good' factor you felt with Munnabhai or 3 Idiots... that's not going to happen.

The script focuses so much on SRK and Taapsee that it fades out the potential of others. Boman Irani and Vicky Kaushal are not given any character arc and knowing their potential it is unfair.

The soundtrack is good and blends with the narrative but nothing stands out. Worth a watch if you get the tickets cheap else wait for it to hit the OTT platforms.
