While Dunki’s advance booking numbers may not be as impressive as Salaar’s, it is still a highly anticipated film among moviegoers. It will be interesting to see how both films perform at the box office upon their release.
In the meantime, ace filmmaker SS Rajamouli added to Salaar’s excitement when he bought the first-ever ticket for Prabhas’ upcoming film from the team.
