In the ever-evolving world of cinema, many films come and go. Some entertain us for a bit, while others just flow like passing clouds. But once in a while comes a film comes that wins the hearts of the audience like no other, remains etched in the memory of the audience, and resonates for years to come. One such tale is of a film which, unlike many budget films, did not have a glamorous star cast or massive production; rather, it was only led by its powerful storyline that made people laugh with its unique comedy, relatable characters, and witty dialogues. The film that we are talking about is none other than the comedy king Fukrey. It was released in the year 2013 and featured Pulkit Samrat, Manjot Singh, Ali Fazal, Varun Sharma, Priya Anand, Vishakha Singh, Pankaj Tripathi, and Richa Chadha. It's a crazy plot, and each character's funny wit made it a massive hit, and it hit gold at the box office. Despite being made on a humble budget of Rs. 8 crores, it collected 36.5 crores in India. With Fukrey's massive hit, it evolved over the years and became a full-blown franchise. Soon, its second part, Fukrey Returns, came in the year 2017, which took its charm forward. Then, in 2023, Fukrey 3 came, which further cemented the franchise's place in Bollywood comedy history. In a recent post, Pulkit posted a tribute video recalling his 12-year-long journey with Fukrey, calling it a ride filled with laughter, chaos, and brotherhood. He thanked everyone who contributed n the film with the caption saying 'Warning: Nostalgia ahead. 12 sweet years of madness, thank you for the love.' Even after more than a decade, Fukrey resonates with the audience and brings a smile to people's faces whenever they watch it.
