In "Dunki," Shah Rukh Khan takes on the role of Hardy, a man with a burning desire to relocate to London with his close-knit group of friends. Taapsee Pannu portrays the character of Manu, while Vicky Kaushal stars as Sukhi. The film's setting appears to be Punjab, where young individuals aspire to move abroad in pursuit of a brighter future.
The teaser opens with intriguing visuals of Shah Rukh Khan's Hardy and his companions trekking across the desert, dressed in black, while an ominous figure aims at them. Additionally, we catch glimpses of supporting characters, including one played by Boman Irani. "Dunki" presents a departure from the stylish action of Shah Rukh Khan's 2023 blockbusters, "Pathaan" and "Jawan," which collectively grossed over Rs 2100 crore worldwide. While "Dunki" seems to carry a more innocent tone, it retains the patriotic themes often explored in Shah Rukh's films over the years.

Shah Rukh Khan has enjoyed a remarkable year in 2023, marked by the success of his films. He kicked off the year with Siddharth Anand's "Pathaan," featuring Deepika Padukone and John Abraham.
