Shah Rukh Khan and Rajkumar Hirani are all set to collaborate for the first time. The official announcement of their film was made on April 19 with an interesting video. The video begins with Shah Rukh marvelling at posters of films like Munnabhai and Sanju made by Hirani. At this point, Hirani walks in and Khan personally praises him and inquires if he has a script for him. Hirani responds positively and informs that the film has comedy, emotions, and romance. However, SRK is baffled by the title Dunki, which he first mistakenly hears as Donkey. Despite the baffling title, Khan walks away convincing himself to do whatever Hirani offers.

Rajkumar Hirani has a track record of delivering hits like Munnabhai M.B.B.S, Lage Raho Munnabhai ,3 idiots, PK, and Sanju. What’s interesting to observe is that the male protagonists or as we know them as ‘heroes’ of Hirani’s films have been quite distinctive, unique and unconventional.  Whether it is Rancho from 3 Idiots or Munnabhai from the Munnabhai series, every character leaves a memorable mark.
