As with his previous films, “Dunki” is reportedly being made on a modest budget of 100Cr, not including the fees for Hirani and Shah Rukh Khan.

Despite the restrained budget, the film has already secured a substantial non-theatrical business of around 230Cr.

This anticipation around the film’s potential success has led to the confirmation of its release date.

If Raj Kumar Hirani manages to deliver a compelling storyline as he’s done before, there’s talk that Shah Rukh.

The theatrical release could potentially amass over 400Cr in shares. Considering the budget of 100Cr

the film’s overall revenue might reach a share in the 600Cr range, with profits being divided among the producers.
