The unique showtime was chosen due to SRK’s special number ‘555’ which is also his car numbers.
While promoting the movie in Dubai, Khan explained the meaning of ‘Dunki’ and said –
“Dunki is an illegal trip lot of people take to get out of their country across borders all over the world. It is called the Donkey travels. So, the film is about going out and finding a future for yourself but loving your home the most. So it’s about homecoming. So, you can stay anywhere in the world but you can rest only on the soil of your nation. So, that’s what the film is about.”
