In the video, titled 'Dunki Diaries', the trio could be seen candidly talking about the film.
Hirani revealed that he saw several homes with a cement airplane made at the top of the property all over Punjab that made him curious to make a film based on this topic. The video also shows a gurudwara in Punjab where people go with their passports to wish for easy immigration abroad.
SRK said that the crux of the story is the friendship of 5 characters in the film.
The trio also unveiled a new short clip from the film in which SRK's character (Hardy) is seen standing in what it seems like a court and he says, "Judge saab mujhe mere desh mein koi khatra nahi hai, mera desh jaisa hai mera hai, main yahan rehne ke liye apne desh ko gaali nahi dunga."

The trio also shared some anecdotes and behind-the-scenes stills from the making of the film.
SRK also told Hirani, in the video, "ek chul reh gayi" as he couldn't be in the film 'In and As' like Aamir Khan in 'PK' or Sanjay Dutt in 'Munna Bhai MBBS'.
In response, Hirani told SRK that he has made a special song dedicated to SRK in 'Dunki' titled 'Banda'. Later on, makers shared the song with the viewers.
Helmed by Rajukmar Hirani, the film also stars Vicky Kaushal, and Boman Irani in pivotal roles.
Recently, during a promotional event in Dubai, SRK heaped praises on his co-star Vicky Kaushal.
Shah Rukh said "Vicky Kaushal is a great friend. I feel he is one of the finest actors I have worked with. And jab aap Dunki mein Vicky Kaushal ko dekheinge toh aapko bohat pyaar aaega unpar. He has done well and I got a lot to learn from him."
