Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan is gearing up for the release of his third film of the year, Dunki. After the success of his blockbusters Pathaan and Jawan, SRK is now ready to give his fans a story of friendship and love with Dunki.
On Wednesday, the makers of Dunki dropped the first song from the film, Lutt Putt Gaya, and SRK followed it up with a #AskSRK session on social media, where he answered his fans' questions with his signature wit and honesty.
One of the questions that came up during the session was about the meaning of 'Dunki', to which SRK replied, "Dunki is a way of describing an illegal journey across borders. It is pronounced डंकी. It’s pronounced like Funky…Hunky….or yeah Monkey!!!".
When a user asked if there was a similar "illegal" way to watch the film in theatres, SRK responded with an anecdote from his own life. He recalled how he used to "patao the projectionist" when he was young and wanted to watch films. He then added, "Try it…it may work perhaps. But don’t tell anyone I told u this. It’s our secret".
SRK admitted that he used to watch films illegally in theatres during his childhood and teenage years in Delhi, since he was a huge fan of Dilip Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan.
Another netizen asked SRK to screen Dunki in a stadium instead of a theatre, and he had a valid reason as to why it couldn't be done. He said, "Yes I also told the team but the air conditioning is an issue. You have to go with kids and elders for the film…will be uncomfortable…so let’s keep this one in the theatres in the 21st December only".
Dunki is all set to hit the silver screens on December 21, and will feature an ensemble cast of Taapsee Pannu, Boman Irani, Vikram Kochhar, Anil Grover, and a special appearance by Vicky Kaushal. Fans are eagerly awaiting the release of the movie, and SRK has promised them a story of friendship and love.
