Bollywood’s king, Shah Rukh Khan, is eagerly preparing for the release of his much-anticipated film, “Dunki.” The movie, directed by renowned filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani, is scheduled to hit theaters on December 21, featuring an ensemble cast including Taapsee Pannu and Vicky Kaushal in significant roles. Although the trailer received immense love from fans, some sections of society criticized SRK for what they perceived as a ‘forced’ Punjabi accent.
During a #AskSRK session, a fan inquired about the expectation of Punjabi dialogues from the actor in “Dunki.” In response, Shah Rukh Khan humbly admitted, “Not too many. I don’t speak it too well, so have left that part to @taapsee and #Vicky, they are brilliant. #DunkiTrailer.” This response shed light on his acknowledgment of his language proficiency limitations.
