As the release date for Shah Rukh Khan’s much-anticipated film, ‘Dunki,’ approaches, the Bollywood superstar is set for a potential year-end blockbuster. Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, the comedy-drama is slated to hit theaters on December 21, 2023, promising laughter-filled moments for the audience.

Recent buzz reveals an impressive advance booking collection of over 10 crores in just one day, with a remarkable 65% growth in pre-booking sales. The film’s anticipation is soaring, and industry insiders expect Dunki’s numbers to climb even higher before its official release.

However, the competition is intense as ‘Dunki‘ faces off against Prabhas and Prashanth Neel’s action-packed thriller, ‘Salaar,’ also scheduled for release on the same day. ‘Salaar’ has taken the lead in pre-booking, amassing 13.50 crores in advance sales, setting the stage for a compelling box office battle.

‘Dunki,’ featuring Shah Rukh Khan as Harrdy and co-starring Taapsee Pannu, Boman Irani, and Vicky Kaushal, explores the unique theme of illegal immigration through “Donkey Flights.” Produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and Jio Studios, the film adds to the excitement surrounding its potential success.

Shah Rukh Khan’s comeback in 2023, with successes like ‘Pathaan’ and ‘Jawan,’ has been remarkable. Despite the tough competition from ‘Salaar,’ expectations are high for ‘Dunki,’ with director Atlee predicting it to be Shah Rukh Khan’s highest-grossing film.

As the countdown to release continues, the clash between ‘Dunki’ and ‘Salaar’ at the box office promises to be a riveting spectacle, with both films poised to leave an indelible mark on the cinematic calendar’s final days for 2023. Stay tuned for updates as the drama unfolds at the ticket windows.
