Dunki Collected A Healthy Rs 123 Crores Nett In Its Extended Holiday Period In India

Dunki collected around Rs 22 crores on Christmas day, which is quite encouraging given that the film exhausted a lot of its potential through Sunday.

The box office performance of Dunki can be seen in two ways. Looking at it as a Shah Rukh Khan film directed by Rajkumar Hirani, the numbers are not too appealing by any stroke of imagination. However, given its reasonable costs, clash with a pan-India biggie and the limited potential of the drama genre post pandemic, they are more than just reasonable or even good.
