~ DUNKI - Reviews/Discussions - NO SPOILERS ~ Thread#2 - Page 28

Then articles compared its advance to SRK's opening day, creating a narrative. Also how Theatres replaced Dunki with Salaar (obviously they have to share screens in a clash). Bots are flooding BMS and IMDb with zero ratings, and other popular fan clubs are part of this negative campaign. They won't even watch the other movie. Critics' reviews aren't impressive either. They successfully created an impression that Dunki isn't a good movie on Day 1.

They even live telecasted Dunki from the theatre, watched by 1.5 lakh people.

Also Dunki isn't targeted at masses so these things affect the movie unlike masala action movies.

WTF???

SRK & Hirani are getting profit shares I know. But Tapsee & Vicky too? 😯😲 Including their fees, I think approx 100 crores is the likely budget.

Vicky has a cameo so he wouldn't be charging a lot and I don't know how much Tapsee charges.....10-15 cr?? This was a big chance for her to act in a Hirani movie opposite SRK.....so I don't think she would have raised any problem regarding remuneration.....main hoti toh free mein karti...

Yes. I have noticed this too. Yesterday we were booking today's tickets for Dunki from BMS and as soon as you open the app, a pop-up ad of Salaar appears that takes up the whole screen AND with a hyperlink to book tickets for it. If touch anywhere else except the tiny x at the top, you would be directed to buy Salaar tickets 😑😑 I mean..... What's this 😑😑

@Bold 2 - That was the most disgusting thing I learnt yesterday 😑 Whoever did that should be tracked down and booked under Piracy act asap 😑

Cameo wale kuch charge karte hai kya? No idea.

Tapsee would charge 3-4 crores at max. 10-15 crores toh DP charge karti hai and she is a lot lot bigger name than Tapsee.

Watched it! The first half was somewhat tolerable; some jokes were amusing. However, the second half was unbearable and lacked sense. In general, the movie was below average.

After watching the movie i'm pretty sure it won't cross 200 crore nett India.
