Dunki Box Office Collection Day 15 (Early Trends): Beats Salman Khan’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo!
Bollywood’s last major release of 2023, Dunki, has turned out to be a successful affair at the Indian box office and ended the year on a positive note for the industry. After crossing the 200 crore mark, the film maintained a steady pace, and here’s how it performed on day 15, i.e., second Thursday!
The first-ever collaboration between Shah Rukh Khan and director Rajkumar Hirani was highly anticipated. However, when the film arrived in theatres, it was welcomed with mixed reactions by both critics and audiences. It did affect the box office run but still, this dream collaboration has emerged as a winner.
Dunki’s 200 crore triumph & steady run
Dunki benefited from Christmas and New Year festivities. As a result, it even sustained a massy film like Salaar, which too is doing well in the Hindi belt. Recently, the Shah Rukh Khan starrer entered the 200 crore club and is moving ahead steadily after a drop.
