Granted the U/A certificate from the Central Board of Film Certification, Dunki is spread across a run time of 2 hours 41 minutes. The film follows the emotional journey of a group of friends who want to move abroad. The plot follows the exciting journey of those who choose an unconventional route known as the Donkey Flight, showing the difficulties they face on their way.
News18 Showsha has given the film a 4-star rating and praised Shah Rukh’s performance. “What keeps Dunki afloat is Shah Rukh Khan. After watching him turn into an action hero with Pathaan and Jawan, it’s refreshing to see him do something that allows him to flex his acting muscles. SRK brings a rare vulnerability, honesty, and earnest dignity to his character. His innocence and charm win us over with sheer heart and it is this heart that counts in a Hirani movie. This is one of the most significant films of his career,” the review read.
