'Dunki' trailer X review: 'Will easily cross Rs 500 crore in India,' say Shah Rukh Khan fans

'Dunki' trailer audience review: The trailer of Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film Dunki, also being referred to as Dunki Drop 4, was released amid much fanfare on Tuesday. The trailer of the film begins with Shah Rukh Khan's entry as Hardy onto the Laltu railway station. He then progresses onto share anecdotes about his friendship, people and his motherland. Hardy tells us about his four friends who mean everything to him. 

The trailer also shows the efforts undertaken by Hardy and his four friends to go to London while battling one of their biggest hiccups-- the language barrier. Boman Irani is shown as an English teacher who trains the group of friends for London. Despite the very evident language barrier, Hardy and his friends decide to get to London at any cost. 

They try to enter London through an illegal route or 'donkey flight' and encounter various obstacles in their way as they try to return back to their homeland. Towards the end, the trailer shows an old Hardy running in a race. Soon after the film's trailer was dropped on the actor's official X (previously Twitter) handle, his fans and moviegoers could not keep calm.

The film's trailer got overwhelmingly positive reviews from Shah Rukh Khan fans, with many of them saying that the film has the potential to become the superstar's next blockbuster outing at the box office.  

"After watching the Dunki trailer, it is clear now that this movie will easily cross Rs 500 crore in India and may even do more. Wow, what a great trailer (sic)," a fan of the actor wrote. 

Another fan of the actor called the trailer a "cinematic masterpiece" and wrote, "Shah Rukh Khan's Dunki is coming to break all box office records. After Pathaan and Jawan, King Khan's Dunki is ready to entertain audience. Dunki is a cinematic masterpiece. Rajkumar Hirani is coming back with a bang!" 

A moviegoer said that the trailer strikes the right chords with the viewers as it is high on emotions. "Action+survival+emotional+comedy+friendship. Dunki Drop 4 hits the right chords. Seems like this Christmas, we are getting everything that we root for! ALL TIME BLOCKBUSTER HAI," the movigoer said. 

While fans of the actor and some moviegoers were excited about Dunki, there were others who had their doubts about Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film. A moviegoer said that the comedy portion of the trailer does not look natural and that Shah Rukh Khan's dialogues sounded a bit off. 

"Comedy bits doesn't look natural and felt like routine stuff. SRK dialogues sounded weird as if he has stuffed something in mouth while speaking. It is not upto Hirani's previous films. Full length movie might be different and loved by audience. But trailer is very average," the moviegoer said. 

Another moviegoer said, "Trailer is good. But voice is so different and weird, even dialogue delivery."
