Dunki directed by Raj Kumar Hirani, the movie dives into the intriguing world of ‘donkey flight’ or ‘dunki’—an underground method immigrants use for sneaking into countries like the UK, the US, and Canada. But that’s not all, it also sheds light on the lives of these brave individuals and their families when they make the choice to return to their homeland. This cinematic gem comes to life through the collaborative efforts of production house Red Chillies Entertainment, JIO Studios, and Rajkumar Hirani Films.
