Hirani's strengths were always simplicity and sincerity. The problem with PK and Sanju was that his film-making style didn't feel sincere anymore. The desperate attempt at manufacturing new catchphrases (Missed call and Question mark), the gimmicky music, and the parade of cameos. It all feels forced and formulaic now.

Sanju is almost certainly one of his stronger films in terms of direction. It's much better crafted than most of his films, and he extracted much better performances than usual. But the kitschy treatment doesn't work for a man like Sanjay Dutt.


Regardless, his very worst is still significantly better than the average bollywood film, so I am hopeful for Dunki. As long as SRK's creative inputs to the film were near zero, we should be fine.

3I I watched multiple times in theatre. smiley42

Sanju is strictly one time watch, couldn't fathom the topic he picked to display. smiley11

Liked PK except Amir's overacting, wished he took some other younger actor. smiley2


Dunki I will be watching 4-5 times in theatre. Likh ke le lo. smiley36


P.S. - I also loved loved loved the way he uses Boman Irani. That Munna Bhai laughtersmiley37, or Virus smiley16 or Get Well Soon emotional touchhhy momentsmiley36. Man, let me go run and check if Dunki has BI. smiley27


Yes, Boman is in Dunki! I'm super excited! 😁❤️

Thoda sa action maine daal diya hai…


Satyanaash!


I genuinely don't think Hirani will falter from his vision. If he has his mind set on creating a certain type of film, he will make it exactly as planned. I don't think a little bit of 'action' will hurt Dunki - DDLJ style. Fingers crossed!

I rewatched Munna Bhai recently and it was still hilarious. My favorite out of his movies is still 3 Idiots. Watched that so many times!

Best was when Munna faints seeing dead-body and Dr. Asthana says - admit him, form mein bhar deta hoon. smiley37

Circuit goes to Chinese guy and tells him— come with me.. mein dikhata hoon ekdum bhuka nanga log Aur Phir usko pit deta hai. smiley37

Omg I can watch this movie anytime.

HAHAHAHAHA my favorite was Cirkut entering the dorm room and saying this room ends even before it starts smiley37 ANDDD Munna Bhai's dad recognizing one of the fake patients at the fake hospital and asking him


Prayag on X: "Examiner to General category nibba in examination hall - https://t.co/5KKokx3PA5" / X


So the guy pretends to have a heart attack and Munna Bhai tells him to do more natural acting like the other fake patient instead of pretending to have a heart attack every time lmao

No the best test part is when Munna comes to him saying he doesn’t want to marry his daughter anymore because now he has fallen in love with the doctor in the hospital.smiley37 That scene makes me ROFL endlessly.
