What is Dunki about?

Four friends from a sleepy little village in Punjab share a common dream: to go to England. Their problem is that they have neither the visa nor the ticket. A soldier alights from a train one day, and their lives change. He gives them a soldier’s promise: He will take them to the land of their dreams. What follows is a hilarious and heartwarming tale of a perilous journey through the desert and the sea, but most crucially through the hinterlands of their mind.

Celluloid verdict: Rajkumar Hirani reunites with Shah Rukh Khan for a immigration road comedy that mixes warmth, politics, and crowd-pleasing set pieces. The film stars Shah Rukh Khan, Taapsee Pannu, Vikram Kochhar, Anil Grover, Boman Irani, and others.
