On Monday, the creators of Dunki released a new video titled “Dunki Diaries” on their YouTube channel. In the video, Shah Rukh Khan was seen engaging with Taapsee Pannu and Rajkumar Hirani, discussing various aspects of Dunki.After exploring the origin of the film’s concept and showcasing behind-the-scenes pictures, Shah Rukh shared an anecdote from shooting the ‘classroom scenes’ in the film. He mentioned, “In the classroom scenes… there’s a particular scene where I’ve become Vicky Kaushal’s ‘nimbu brother.’ While people become blood brothers, Vicky and I became ‘nimbu brothers.’ There’s a lot of love. A couple of times, he even called me and said, ‘I married Katrina too soon… if not, I would have married you!'”
Rajkumar Hirani went on to share his surprise at witnessing a scene in the film where Shah Rukh licked a piece of lemon and then passed it to Vicky Kaushal, who also licked it. Shah Rukh humorously added that even to this day, they occasionally meet and share the same lemon.

During a promotional event in Dubai for Dunki, Shah Rukh Khan had previously praised Vicky Kaushal’s performance in the movie. He expressed, “Vicky is a great friend. I personally feel he is one of the finest actors I have worked with. When you watch him in Dunki, you will feel a lot of love for him. He has done really, really well, and I got to learn from him, actually.”
