Shah Rukh Khan’s film ‘Dunki’ to release as per schedule

Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan’s much-awaited film “Dunki” will be released on Christmas this year as per the original plan.

Lately, it was rumoured that the release of Dunki is being pushed due to the delay in post-production timelines and its clash with actor Prabas’ film “Salaar.” Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, the film also stars Taapsee Pannu and Vicky Kaushal.

In an official statement, the film makers said, “Everyone has been eagerly waiting for the release of Shah Rukh Khan’s much-awaited Dunki. The film has been in talks ever since its announcement and with all the discussion around, comes along the wait of the audience for its release. While the rumours around Rajkumar Hirani’s directorial release have been taking rounds, it is now been confirmed that there is no postponement in the release and the film will be released on Christmas 2023.”

The statement added, “The audience has always been waiting to hear and see more of Shah Rukh Khan’s next project Dunki. While the speculations about its release date getting postponed have kept the audience excitement on edge, now it has been confirmed that Dunki has locked its release on Christmas 2023.”

Dunki’s release was confirmed by Shah Rukh Khan at Jawan’s success press meet last month.

The superstar had said, “I think, Mashallah, God’s been very kind. We had Pathaan. God’s been even kinder with Jawan. I always tell we started with Republic Day (January 26). It’s an auspicious day. On Janmashtami, we released Jawan.”

“On Christmas, we will bring Dunki for you. I prioritise national integration. And whenever my film releases, it has to be Eid. I’m working hard. I’m working harder than what I worked for in the last 29 years. And Inshallah, I will work hard. I get happy now when people watch movies and they derive happiness out of them.”
