Dunki Review: Adventure with a Funny Flawed Journey

0

Starring: Shah Rukh Khan, Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal, and more

Director: Rajkumar Hirani

Story: Four people from Punjab dream of going to London. They learn English and meet Hardy, a soldier who helps them cross the border illegally. The film follows their journey and explores the reasons behind their choices.

Plus Points:

  • Laugh Out Loud: The first half is packed with funny scenes, typical of Hirani’s style. It’s a fast-paced ride without any dull moments.
  • SRK Shines: Shah Rukh Khan delivers a great performance, especially in a courtroom scene. He’s not just a star, he’s a skilled actor too.
  • Solid Cast: Taapsee Pannu and others hold their own alongside SRK. The film also sheds light on a less-known issue.
  • Second Half Moments: There are some good scenes in the later part too.

Minus Points:

  • Emotionally Lacking: The film tackles a difficult topic, but Hirani’s usual emotional punch isn’t quite there. It doesn’t hit as hard as his previous works.
  • Missed Potential: Vicky Kaushal’s cameo could have been more impactful, and the interval sequence isn’t as effective as it could be.
  • Technical Glitches: The CGI is shaky in some places, and the editing feels like it left out some important details about SRK’s character.

Overall:

Dunki is a decent film with a unique concept and plenty of laughs. While it’s not Hirani’s best work, it’s still enjoyable thanks to the humor and strong performances. If you’re okay with some flaws, you’ll have a good time. Shah Rukh Khan fans especially won’t be disappointed.

Bonus: The film also clashes with another big release, Salaar, adding to the excitement!

Prashanth Neel | From Ugramm to Salaar | A Director’s Vision

Get ready for a big movie event! Tomorrow is the release of “Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire,” a big action movie starring Prabhas and directed by Prashanth Neel. Prithviraj Sukumaran also plays an important role.

Prashanth Neel wants this movie to be as successful as another movie he made, “KGF.” He says “Salaar” is inspired by another story called “Ugramm,” but it’s not just a copy. He changed things to fit the actors and make it different.

Even though some people might say it’s too similar to “KGF,” the director doesn’t mind. He worked hard on both movies, and he thinks both have cool stories and characters.

Lots of other actors are in “Salaar” too, including Shruti Haasan and Jagapathi Babu. It’s a big movie made for people all over India, with music by Ravi Basrur. Expect lots of action and excitement!

Salaar Gets an A Certificate, Director Upset About Cuts

The big news: Salaar, the upcoming action movie directed by Prashanth Neel, has been given an “A” certificate by the censor board, meaning only adults can watch it. This upset the director because he had to make some cuts to the film, but he didn’t want to take out certain scenes because they were important to the story.

Why the A rating? The censor board asked for cuts in many scenes, mainly because of violence. Prashanth felt some cuts were okay, but others would ruin the movie. He talked to the lead actor, Prabhas, who suggested going with the A rating to keep the story intact.

What to expect: Even with the cuts, Salaar promises to be a thrilling action movie with a great cast, including Prabhas, Prithviraj Sukumaran, and Shruti Haasan. It hits theaters on December 22nd, so get ready for a wild ride!
