Reason 1
First and foremost, Twitter users are expressing their disappointment with the heavy use of VFX on Shah Rukh Khan’s face. Described as “horrible and cringeworthy,” the over-reliance on visual effects appears to have missed the mark for many viewers, raising concerns about the authenticity and naturalness of the portrayal.
The heavy VFX face of #SRK is horrible & cringeworthy .
Coupled with that, the poor dialogue delivery & overacting makes #Dunki as a dudIt’s nonsense from the start & even corporate bookings can’t prevent it 4rm being an all time disasters

Reason 2
Adding fuel to the fire, criticism extends to the overall performance, with comments about poor dialogue delivery and perceived overacting. Some users even go so far as to suggest that Shah Rukh Khan seems to be emulating the acting style of Aamir Khan, drawing parallels to characters from ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ and ‘PK.’
Dunki Trailer – VERY DISAPPOINTED!
2 NUMBER OUT OF 5 [RATING]SRK is copying acting of AMIR KHAN.
Shahrukh Khan's Dialogue Mixture of LAAL SINGH CHADDHA & PK Movie.

Reason 3
One notable absence noted by Twitter is the trademark humour associated with director Rajkumar Hirani. Fans were anticipating the wit and comedic brilliance that the director is known for, but according to Twitter, the ‘Dunki’ trailer fell short in delivering those expected one-liners and jokes.

Reason 4
The third critique revolves around the perceived lack of engagement in the trailer. Initially, some users even questioned if it was a fan-made trailer, expressing surprise that it was the official one. The disappointment echoes through comments suggesting that the trailer failed to capture the essence of the film and lacked the intriguing elements expected from a major release.
I'm disappointed with the #DunkiTrailer
It has nothing eye catching like it was in #Jawaan and #Pathaan
And the voice of #SRK is also not good. Sounds weird.Overall below average #Trailer

Reason 5
Last but not least, a sentiment prevails among Twitter users that this is the first time they’ve been let down by an SRK film trailer. Describing the cuts as “pathetic and amateurish,” fans express their dismay over what they anticipated as a grand cinematic experience.
I've never been disappointed with any SRK film trailers before. For the first time, that has happened, and it's for the one I've been waiting for ages. The cuts for the trailer are pathetic and amateurish for such a huge film. Why, God, why 😭#Dunki #DunkiTrailer #SRK https://t.co/bTB2gIvIB4

As the #disaster trend gains momentum, it remains to be seen whether these Twitter opinions will impact the film’s fate when it hits theaters on December 21, going head-to-head with Prabhas’ ‘Salaar.’
