The year started with <em>Pathaan</em>, which was always ladies first, and I want to end the year with a film for myself. So, please watch <em>Dunki</em> on December 21 for me.

He is married to a great friend, Katrina (Kaif). I've known his father for many years, Sham ji is an action director and he has directed this film. I personally feel he (Vicky) is one of the finest actors I've worked with. When you watch him in <em>Dunki</em>, you'll really adore him. I got a lot to learn from him," Shah Rukh said.</p>.<p>Hirani is a friend and the 'best director in the country', he added.</p>.<p>"We all love and respect him. We need to give the love back because he gives us so much love through his cinema." </p><p>Hirani has directed <em>Dunki</em> from a script he co-wrote with Abhijaat Joshi and Kanika Dhillon. </p>
