Released on January 25, 2023, Pathaan, which marked the comeback of King Khan to the big screen after four years of hiatus, was a huge box office success.
Starring Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, the movie went on to earn around Rs 1055 crore (Rs 1 billion), and become the second-highest-grossing Hindi movie of all time. However, the action-thriller was dethroned by Shah Rukh's other film, Jawan. Released in September, Atlee's film made a whopping Rs 1160 crore (Rs 1.1 billion) in India, becoming the highest-grossing movie of 2023 and the second-highest-grossing Hindi film of all time after Aamir Khan's Dangal.
Dunki features an ensemble of Boman Irani, Taapsee Pannu, Vicky Kaushal, Vikram Kochhar, and Anil Grover.
WION's review of Dunki
In her review of the film, Shomini Sen wrote, "Dunki also comes out in a year when the alpha-male and action heroes have been lapped up in India. Hirani's sensibilities, therefore, may feel dated in a year like 2023. Nevertheless, Dunki has its heart in the right place and tries to convey an important message wrapped in Hirani's quintessential style of entertainment."
