After two massive successes, Shah Rukh Khan is all set for his third release of the year. The actor is eagerly anticipating the release of his much-awaited film, "Dunki," helmed by Rajkumar Hirani. Advance bookings for Dunki opened yesterday in India. According to reports, after day 1 of advance bookings the film has lagged behind compared to Prabhas' 'Salaar'.

As per reports on sacnilk.com, the film has earned ₹1.24 crore so far in bookings, with the Taapsee Pannu starrer managing to sell 33,770 tickets with 2836 shows. The coming days will be crucial for the film as it faces a clash with Prabhas' Salaar.

Meanwhile, Salaar has minted over ₹1 crore in bookings. The total number of tickets sold so far for the film is 51280, with 867 shows. The total business made by the film is ₹1.05 crore via advance booking.

Trade analyst Sumit Kadel tweeted, "Dunki Initial pre-sale starts on a remarkable note. The film has sold 10K +tickets at national chain multiplexes. Non-national chains showing good movement too. If the momentum continues then Dunki will challenge top films of 2023 in terms of final advance booking. Next 3 days will give a clear picture."

'Dunki' is a heartwarming tale of four friends and their quest to reach foreign shores. It charts the arduous yet life-changing journey they are about to undertake to make their dreams come true.
